Position Overview
The Amazon Robotics (AR) Software Research and Science team builds and runs simulation experiments and delivers analyses that are central to understanding the performance of the entire AR system.

We are seeking an enthusiastic Data Scientist to design and implement state-of-the-art solutions for never-before-solved problems. The DS will collaborate closely with other research and robotics experts to design and run experiments, research new algorithms, and find new ways to improve Amazon Robotics analytics to optimize the Customer experience. They will partner with technology and product leaders to solve business problems using scientific approaches. They will build new tools and invent business insights that surprise and delight our customers. They will work to quantify system performance at scale, and to expand the breadth and depth of our analysis to increase the ability of software components and warehouse processes.
