Key job responsibilities

You will be responsible for driving all aspects of the First Mile analytics roadmap — the leg that moves inventory from our fulfillment and sort centers into the transportation network.

Innovation & Stakeholder/Project management
  • Leverage planning and analytics tools developed by Science teams to assess the optimal First Mile topology, connectivity and flows
  • Use and share your insights with partner teams to influence strategic decisions (e.g. site connectivity, injection points, first-mile transportation design)
  • For the most complex and ambitious opportunities, quickly launch new pilots, and build scale-up business cases with benefits, bottlenecks, risks and resources required
  • For the algorithmic opportunities, work with teams of software developers and research scientists to design the next round of software innovation
  • Lead regular business reviews with partner teams to monitor the progress of projects in the roadmap. Help remove bottlenecks
  • Consolidate progress into crisp and concise data-driven status updates. You will own reporting to Amazon senior leadership (VP-level).
Data Analytics/Science
  • Deep dive complex data to uncover actionable insights for known and unknown problems
  • Good expertise with financial modelling (P&L, cashflow, mix/rate)
  • Candidates must be able to think and operate at all levels (both strategically and tactically).
