Jobs

Do you want to build quantitative models millions of people will use, based on data from the world's largest online laboratory? Are you passionate about formulating relevant questions, and producing solutions to initially ill-defined problems? Do the challenges and opportunities of terabytes of data excite you? Can you think abstractly, and apply your ideas to the real world? Can you contribute to the big picture, and are not afraid to handle the details?

Amazon.com is solving incredibly interesting problems in areas including consumer behavior modeling, pricing and promotions, personalization and recommendations, reputation management, fraud detection, computational marketing, customer acquisition and retention. Emphasizing measurement and analytics, we build and automate solutions that leverage instant feedback and the Web's scale.

We are looking for people with the right blend of vision, curiosity, and hands-on skills, who want to be part of a highly visible, intellectually vibrant, entrepreneurial team. Ideal candidates will have a track record of creating innovative solutions. They will typically have a graduate degree in computer science, physics, statistics, electrical engineering, bioinformatics, or another computational science.
