If you’re interested in joining a rapidly growing team working to build a unique, solutions advisory group with a relentless focus on the customer, you’ve come to the right place.

As a simulation scientist, you will apply cutting edge designs and methodologies for complex use cases across Last Mile network to drive innovation. In addition, you will contribute to the end state vision for simulation and experimentation of future delivery stations at Amazon.

Key job responsibilities

• Create basic to highly advanced models and run "what-if" scenarios to help drive to optimal solutions
• Work closely with internal teams to ensure that every detail is thought through and documented using Standard Operating Procedures and/or structured change control
• Work closely with vendors, suppliers and other cross functional teams to come up with innovative solutions
• Simultaneously manage multiple projects and tasks while effectively influencing, negotiating, and communicating with internal and external business partners
