This Principal Applied Scientist will be the science leader across a suite of causal impact models used across Amazon's business. This scientist will oversee development of a scalable framework to calculate incremental impact of Selling Partner actions and Selling Partner facing programs on their long-term business growth. This framework must support development of both homogenous and heterogeneous treatment effect models that can be used to surface impact estimates to Sellers or guide segmented analyses of impact across populations. These models will scale to 200+ different types of actions and a diverse set of use cases (content prioritization, action lift estimation, program valuation).
This role requires advising directors/VPs on using causal and impact estimation models to inform key decisions such as whether to maintain support for a feature, or double down on a SP-facing product. This leader must be innovative, determining the right set of techniques to solve the unique scientific challenges, and designing and implementing scalable solutions. The role requires solving problems of significant scientific and technical complexity (often with incomplete data) that necessitates the use and understanding of methodologies across multiple science and econometrics sub-disciplines. This scientist must apply high-judgement to balance the scientific innovation achieving required model accuracy and will often be required to make trade-offs between speed of delivery, breadth of use cases, accuracy of models, clarity of performance metrics, explainability, and other factors.
Key Job Responsibilities:
- Lead a group of scientists and software engineers to deliver solutions utilizing ML and other advanced algorithms to solve business problems.
- Advance team's engineering craftsmanship and drive continued scientific innovation as a thought leader and practitioner.
- Develop science and engineering roadmap, run Sprint/quarter and annual planning, and foster cross-team collaboration to execute complex projects.
- Design and execute experiments, and analyze experimental results in collaboration with Product Managers, Business Analysts, Economists, and other specialists.
- Hire and develop top talents, provide technical and career development guidance to both scientists and engineers in the organization.
- Leverage industry best practices to establish repeatable applied science practices, principles & processes.
- Demonstrated track record of project delivery for large, cross-functional projects with evolving requirements.
- Excellent written and verbal technical communication with an ability to present complex technical information in a clear and concise manner to a variety of audiences.
- Exceptional customer relationship skills including the ability to discover the true requirements underlying feature requests, recommend alternative technical and business approaches, and lead engineering efforts to meet aggressive timelines with optimal solutions.
