Amazon is looking for talented Postdoctoral Scientists to join our team for a one-year, full-time research position.
The EU Science and Technology (SnT) team owns scalable algorithms, models and systems that improve customer experience in middle-mile. We work backwards from Amazon's customers aiming to make transportation faster, cheaper, safer, more reliable and ecologically sustainable with the technological advances we offer. To that end, we split our time between short-term deliveries focused on business and long-term research that prepare Amazon for the future. Our skills lie in the area of machine learning and optimization; and know how to code efficient algorithmic science solutions. In this position we focus on Demand Forecast for Scheduling and Capacity Management, which includes the subproblems of origin-destination forecasting, week over week end-to-end network demand flow estimation, hour per hour forecast refresh.
We experiment and innovate relentlessly. Science is core in our offering to shoppers, advertisers and customers. Our scientists apply machine learning, optimization, causal modeling and game theory at scale to enhance the customer experience, help advertisers reach relevant audiences, and support brand building. We are seeking talented scientists to invent cutting-edge techniques in a variety of areas and innovate on behalf of shoppers, advertisers, and customers.
In this role you will:
* Work closely with a senior science advisor, collaborate with other scientists and engineers, and be part of Amazon’s vibrant and diverse global science community.
* Publish your innovation in top-tier academic venues and hone your presentation skills.
* Be inspired by challenges and opportunities to invent cutting-edge techniques in your area(s) of expertise.
