If you are a scientist who wants to work at the frontier of time series research, at a scale no academic lab or startup can match, and see your work deployed to real-world impact — this is the team for you. Key job responsibilities - Design and run rigorous experiments at scale to evaluate and improve foundation model performance across hundreds of millions of products, geographies, and business verticals - Lead the end-to-end lifecycle of evaluation models — from research and experimentation through production launch — including defining success metrics, obtaining stakeholder sign-off, and managing rollout - Conduct online and offline labs to measure the real-world impact of model improvements beyond accuracy, including downstream supply chain, inventory, and financial outcomes - Develop and deploy production-grade statistical models using Python, Scala, SQL, and related tools - Perform large-scale exploratory data analysis to uncover patterns, identify opportunities, and inform model development - Translate complex research findings into clear insights and recommendations for technical and non-technical stakeholders at all levels A day in the life A day in the life No two days look the same, but most will involve some combination of deep technical work, cross-functional collaboration, and scientific thinking at a scale you won't find anywhere else. You might start the morning reviewing the results of an experiment running across hundreds of millions of products — analyzing whether a new foundation model variant is improving generalization on cold-start items, or whether a novel data generation approach is meaningfully shifting forecast quality. You'll dig into the numbers, form a hypothesis, and design the next iteration. Later in the day, you could be in a stakeholder review, walking business and engineering partners through a set of launch metrics — explaining not just forecast accuracy, but the downstream supply chain and financial impact your model is driving. Getting a model to production at Amazon requires rigor: you'll define success criteria, run online and offline labs to validate real-world impact, and build the case for sign-off across technical and business stakeholders. You'll write code — Python, Scala, SQL — to process and analyze data at a scale most scientists never encounter. You'll collaborate closely with scientists, engineers, and business teams, and contribute to research that has a real chance of being published and advancing the field. The work is hard, the problems are unsolved, and the impact is immediate. If you want to do research that ships — this is where you do it.
