AWS customers are moving from traditional console-based building toward AI-augmented, agent-primary, and autonomous workflows. Understanding who these customers are, how they think, and what they need requires new research approaches — not just new data. You will design the studies, develop the frameworks, and produce the evidence that helps AWS see its customers clearly as this transformation unfolds. You will work alongside data scientists, applied scientists, engineers, and research teams who are building the data foundations for customer understanding. Key job responsibilities - Apply rigorous statistical methods to customer experience data — segmentation analysis, behavioral pattern analysis, causal inference, and outcome measurement — grounded in the team's customer lifecycle data and metrics frameworks. - Produce research findings structured to inform product strategy and leadership decisions. - Develop research frameworks and approaches for understanding emerging customer populations — AI-augmented builders, agent-primary developers, Gen Z digital natives — where existing methods may not apply. - Write compelling, clear research narratives for technical and non-technical audiences, including senior leadership. - Contribute to the team's scientific direction and mentor others. About the team Diverse Experiences AWS values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the preferred qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, has not followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, do not let it stop you from applying.
