Are you inspired by invention? Do you like the idea of seeing how your work impacts the bigger picture? Answer yes to any of these and you’ll fit right in here at Amazon Last Mile Solutions Engineering team. WW AMZL Solutions Engineering team is looking to build out our Senior Simulation team to drive innovation across our Last Mile network. We start with the customer and work backwards in everything we do. 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. This is a blue-sky role that gives you a chance to roll up your sleeves and dive into big data sets in order to build discrete event 3D simulations using tools like Flexsim, Anylogic, Emulate 3D etc and experimentation systems at scale, build optimization algorithms and leverage cutting-edge technologies across Amazon. This is an opportunity to think big about how to solve a challenging problem for the customers. As a Simulation Scientist, you are expected to deep dive into complex problems and drive relentlessly towards innovative solutions working with cross functional teams. Be comfortable interfacing and influencing various functional teams and individuals at all levels of the organization in order to be successful. Lead strategic modelling and simulation projects related to drive process design decisions. Your expertise in synthesizing and communicating insights and recommendations to audiences of varying levels of technical sophistication will enable you to answer specific business questions and innovate for the future. 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.
