Ph3Data Scientist , Amazon Transportation Services (NEST) /h3 pJob ID: | Amazon.com Services LLC /p pHave you ever placed an order on Amazon and wondered how it got to you so fast? Behind that speed is a massive transportation network generating billions of data points daily. We need someone who can turn that data into clarity. /p pCome join the Network Engineering, Scheduling and Technology (NEST) Science team within Amazon Transportation Services. We are looking for a Data Scientist who is equal parts data engineer, visualization architect, and analytical modeler. You will own the end-to-end build process for data-driven solutions: identifying business needs, developing simulation and optimization models, building computationally efficient analytical tools, and narrating results through compelling data storytelling. This is not a dashboard-building role. You will work at the intersection of large-scale data processing, advanced analytics (including simulation and optimization), and data visualization, building tools that allow stakeholders to explore millions of records interactively, uncover patterns in network performance, and make data-driven decisions with confidence. /p pThe ideal candidate is a data wizard who thrives on wrangling massive datasets, building predictive and prescriptive models, architecting performant query and aggregation pipelines, and crafting visualizations that communicate complex findings with precision and clarity. You will own the full lifecycle, from problem identification and data extraction through modeling and simulation to production-grade analytical applications that narrate results back to stakeholders. You will collaborate closely with scientists, engineers, and product managers /p h3Key job responsibilities /h3 ul liOwn the end-to-end analytical lifecycle: identify stakeholder needs, frame problems, build models, and narrate results through data tools and visualizations /li liDesign and build production-grade analytical tools, BI applications, and interactive data products that enable self-service exploration of very large transportation datasets (billions of records) /li liDevelop and enhance simulation and optimization models (discrete event simulation, agent-based modeling, mathematical optimization)
