Applied Science Manager, Amazon Digital Advertising
Lead a team of scientists who measure what matters—the real-world impact of Amazon’s marketing at billion-dollar scale. Amazon Advertising is one of Amazon’s fastest growing lines of business and our team occupies a unique position focused on maximizing the success of Amazon’s own marketing programs using our ad tech. Amazon marketing is Customer Zero for our ad tech, and our measurement science team is focused on quantifying the impact of the marketing that drives customers to discover and engage with Amazon’s products and services. We turn petabytes of retail, streaming, and customer signals into causal insights that make Amazon’s marketing spend smarter and more effective. As Customer Zero, we also extend the impact of methodologies, measurement systems, and insights we generate for Amazon’s marketing to directly inform the products and services we offer to external advertisers, shaping the tools that power the broader Amazon Ads ecosystem. This is a growth role for a successful candidate that is energized by building high-performing teams, tackling causal inference challenges that don’t have textbook answers, and shipping science that improves both Amazon’s own marketing and the advertising products used by the world’s largest brands. Dozens of Amazon businesses use Amazon’s ad tech for their marketing objectives, driving more than $1B of marketing investments through Ads services and tools. As part of our team, this role will lead a cross-functional science team to measure the impact of Amazon’s marketing and identify opportunities for optimization at scale. You will set the strategic direction for your team, drive initiatives to make smarter marketing decisions, and improve the relevance of advertising to our customers. We move away from industry standard measurement systems and build sophisticated and insightful decision engines. We enable massive advertising programs, generating billions of impressions decorated with rich representations of customer state. The major challenges we are solving include integrating petabyte-scale distributed retail systems into a singular service to synthesize e-commerce data into measurement and optimization models. The successful candidate will have a strong technical background in ML and causal inference, experience with large scale data ML models, high judgment to drive business impact, an appreciation for white-space, and success building and developing high-performing teams.
