    We are looking for a Data Scientist to join our team at Amazon. In this role, you will apply statistical techniques, machine learning, and data analysis to solve well-defined business problems and deliver measurable improvements. You will work with large-scale datasets from multiple sources, build and validate models, and create metrics that quantify impact. This is an opportunity for a self-starter who is comfortable with ambiguity in data, thrives on collaboration with science and engineering partners, and is eager to grow their craft in a fast-paced environment.

    • Gather, clean, and integrate large datasets from multiple sources to build and validate models, ensuring data integrity and adherence to best practices throughout the pipeline.
    • Design and deliver metrics, visualizations, and reports that compare results against benchmarks and original project goals, enabling clear and informed decision-making for stakeholders.
    • Collaborate with business, science, and engineering teams to understand customer needs, identify opportunities, and develop scalable analytical solutions using tools such as Python, R, or SQL.
    • Evaluate opportunities to integrate generative artificial intelligence tools into workflows, refining outputs and applying responsible practices to augment productivity and solution quality.

    About the team

    About Company

    At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

    Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles
    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
