Come and be a part of Amazon’s amazing growth story and innovation!
Amazon Global Mile Tech is chartered to build a comprehensive portfolio of products that provides Shippers end-to-end transportation, node processing and foundational capabilities to ship packages internationally across a global network of connected arcs and nodes in a variety of scenarios (imports, exports and trans shipments). There are millions of such packages, each with different attributes, delivery requirements and international commerce and customs constraints. What results is a complex graph of source, intermediate and destination nodes with their arcs crossing international borders and associated with different costs and transit times. Accounting for all these constraints and maximizing the number of shipments shipped, while minimizing cost, providing a variety of customer delivery options and maximizing delivery performance is our primary focus.
We are building world class technology cutting across deep algorithmic problems, brand new tools that cater to multi-party business scenarios and challenging data models that are evolving very quickly. Our systems touch every single package that travels internationally which mandates building of highly available and scalable distributed systems. Besides technology, there are ample opportunities in the team to build domain expertise of international transportation and supply chain realms and get first-hand experience of the Amazon operations by interacting directly with our global internal and external partners, and the senior engineering talent pool.
We are looking for a highly talented applied scientist to be part of our science team in Bellevue, WA. In this role, you will partner with business and technical teams to design and document requirements, and develop technical strategies and applied science roadmaps for delivery of features. You will be part of passionate group of scientists in optimizing large scale distributed technology solutions and also innovating new ideas and providing technology directions to our business in the domain of imports and exports logistics. We have many key initiatives lined-up to support our rapid evolution and growth of international transportation network by solving some of the most challenging problems in this domain. https://youtu.be/wmjfqQj3UkA
Key job responsibilities
- Develop deep learning/Gen AI applications that perform product classifications and document data extraction.
- Lead and partner with the engineering and operations teams to drive modeling and technical design for complex business problems in transportation using ML/Deep Learning models
- Lead complex modeling analyses to aid management in making key business decisions and set new policies.
A day in the life
You'll collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify opportunities for AI/ML applications in global logistics. Your day might include analyzing complex datasets, developing new machine learning models, meeting with stakeholders to understand business requirements, and iterating on solutions with your engineering partners. You'll have the opportunity to work on challenging problems that directly impact Amazon's international shipping capabilities.
About the team
Our team is dedicated to building comprehensive transportation solutions that enable efficient international shipping across a complex network of connected nodes. We work on cutting-edge technology that touches every international package at Amazon, requiring highly available and scalable distributed systems. You'll join a passionate group of scientists who are pushing the boundaries of what's possible in global logistics through innovation and technical excellence.
