    Job Description

Operating at massive scale across hundreds of product lines and billions of dollars of worldwide inventory, SCOT"s fully in-house, automated planning and optimization systems are among the most sophisticated in the world. Finance within SCOT is a high-impact function, partnering directly with AI and machine learning engineers, scientists, product managers, and operations leaders to shape strategy, drive investment decisions, and deliver measurable improvements to Amazon"s supply chain economics.

    We seek a candidate who is passionate about diving deep with data analysis and comfortable working alongside AI and automation systems that drive billion-dollar decisions in Amazon"s inbound space. You should be curious about how algorithms work, willing to interrogate model outputs, and energized by building the metrics and controls that keep automated systems on track. The ability to think critically and analytically, combined with strong problem-solving skills, will be essential for success in this role.

    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 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.
