Job Description

Amazon operates in a virtual, global eCommerce environment in seven countries across the Globe. Every day, millions of customers rely on Amazon to give them access to one of the world's largest selections of consumer goods. To continue to delight and exceed our customer's expectations, at Amazon, we take the quality of our catalog very seriously. That's where you can help. The RBS group provides catalog augmentation and correction technologies for the Amazon selling community. Our solutions ensure information in Amazon's catalogs is both complete and comprehensive enough to give our customers a great shopping experience every time.

We are looking for a customer obsessed Data Scientist who can apply the latest research, state of the art algorithms and machine learning to build highly scalable systems in the e-commerce domain.

As a successful Data Scientist in Walk the Store, you will work on variations, a concept, which consists of a family of product detail pages that vary by specific product attributes. You will navigate through numerous unexplored areas of product variation, driven by the diversity of millions products and across essential variation components within the amazon eco system, to formulate scaleable mechanisms that deliver superior customer experience. To be successful in this role, you need to be a sophisticated user of advanced data extraction and transformation tools (e.g Python, SQL), and will need to understand the source data and be able to synthesize it down to a form suitable for answering specific business questions, and machine learning. You should be able to model common patterns within the product families using unstructured data, design algorithms to detect anomalies at attribute level which are highly dynamic and differs by product. Work with higher dimensional features, apply scalable decomposition methods and drive feature singularity across the product type. Consider any anomaly in the product attribute is a defect and leverage Self-supervised algorithms to analyze anomalies in product attributes and recommend on possible fixes. You will need to be an expert in sequence modelling, with hands on experience on embedding and localized anomaly detection models. You need to be imaginative with a flair to solve complex problems in a challenging environment with a passion to build solutions that improve the experience of millions of Amazon customers.
