How can we optimize our global supply chain operations by leveraging advanced forecasting models and simulations? How do we build fiscally responsible models that account for potential disruptions, network changes, and macroeconomic scenarios?
What is the relationship between supply chain dynamics and customer demand patterns? How do we ensure resilience and agility without compromising efficiency?
Our team's stated mission is to "Empower aggressive, yet responsible data-driven decisions for our global supply chain operations by leveraging cutting-edge forecasting techniques and simulations.
International inbound supply chain forecasting at Amazon Global Logistics (AGL) is a critical function that enables us to meet customer demand while minimizing risks and maximizing efficiency.
Our team must keep pace with the ever-increasing complexities of a dynamically evolving global logistics transportation network and build counterfactual simulation models (CSM) to anticipate and respond to potential disruptions proactively.
Utilizing Amazon Web Services, you will formulate research questions about supply chain dynamics, build state-of-the-art forecasting models, and integrate these models into our operational systems.
You will participate in the Amazon analytics community and mentor data scientists & business intelligence engineers with a strong interest in and knowledge of supply chain optimization.
Your work will directly impact our global operations and logistics, and you will measure the impact using rigorous quantitative methods.
We are looking for a passionate, hard-working, and talented applied scientist who has experience building mission-critical, high-volume applications that drive operational excellence.
In this role, you should expect to make a significant impact on the design, architecture, and implementation of cutting-edge solutions that power our international inbound supply chain operations."
