Sr. Research Scientist, Pricing Science
US, WA, Seattle
Amazon's Worldwide Pricing & Promotions organization is seeking a talented, hands-on Research Scientist to join the Pricing and Promotion Optimization Science (P2OS) team — the optimization "application layer" within Amazon's Pricing Sciences organization. Amazon adjusts prices on hundreds of millions of products daily across a global marketplace; P2OS is the team that makes those prices optimal. P2OS is a small, specialized unit with an outsized charter: develop and maintain the models that determine optimal prices and promotions across Amazon's catalog and merchant programs. We own the full optimization stack — from price prediction to promotion targeting to competitiveness guardrails — and we measure success in terms of accretive Gross Contribution and Customer Pricing Perception (GCCP). Our work spans Retail Core, Amazon Business, Fresh, Grocery, and international marketplaces, and we are continually investing in more extensible, generalizable science foundations to keep pace with a growing and evolving business. We are looking for an innovative, organized, and customer-focused scientist with exceptional machine learning and predictive modeling skills, causal and experimental evaluation experience, and the entrepreneurial spirit to apply state-of-the-art methods to some of the most impactful pricing problems in e-commerce. You should be comfortable with ambiguity, motivated by measurable business impact, and excited by the opportunity to work at Amazon-scale. Key job responsibilities * Innovate and build. Design, develop, and deploy machine learning models that set optimal prices and promotions across Amazon's global catalog. Own models end-to-end — from problem formulation and data analysis through offline evaluation, A/B testing, and production launch. * Build a generalizable science foundation. Develop models and evaluation frameworks designed to scale across merchant programs, product categories, and marketplaces — enabling cross-learning and reducing the time and cost of applying science to new business contexts. * Build and evolve optimization systems. Design and improve optimization systems — including reinforcement learning and multi-objective optimization approaches — that automate price and promotion decisions at scale across millions of products. * Apply generative AI and foundation models. Identify and pursue opportunities to leverage large language models, embeddings, and generative AI techniques in pricing science — from enriching product representations and extracting competitive signals from unstructured data, to building more capable and explainable pricing systems. * Experiment rigorously. Design and execute A/B tests and causal inference studies to measure the business and customer impact of pricing model changes. Translate findings into production-ready science improvements. * Stay at the frontier. Establish mechanisms to track the latest advances in reinforcement learning, causal ML, multi-objective optimization, generative AI, and demand modeling — and identify opportunities to apply them to Pricing & Promotions business problems. * See the big picture. Contribute to the long-term scientific vision for how Amazon sets competitive, perception-preserving prices — balancing profitability, customer trust, and marketplace health.
