About this role
We are seeking a seasoned executive leader to join our Network Solutions team within Amazon Customer Service, as Director, Data Science. In this role you will build and lead a data, analytics, and measurement science function that orchestrates Amazon's Customer Service full network – across our human-assisted and customer-facing automation AI-enabled channels – as a single intelligent system. Network Solutions owns demand forecasting, network planning, routing, real-time observability, and workforce strategy, and is building the next generation of AI-enabled planning systems with intelligent and adaptive capabilities that consider humans and AI-agents, simultaneously. You will lead a multi-disciplinary team – scientists, data engineers, business intelligence engineers, and analysts – who will build the data strategy these new systems require and the measurement science that reshapes how every network decision is made. At the core is a unified measurement framework that measures the value of experiences across customers, associates, and our business, drawing on causal inference, economics, operations, and behavioral science. You will create the underlying logic for how we plan capacity, route customers, develop associates, and allocate resources – and serve as an interface and work closely with partner teams within Customer Service, including the CS-wide Data Intelligence organization. The ideal candidate brings deep cross-disciplinary experience in data science, measurement, and operations – a track record of building and leading data and insights organizations from 0-to-1, the scientific depth to drive novel measurement frameworks, and the rare ability to blend quantitative rigor with an understanding of human systems – developing the right logic to drive decision-making at scale. Key job responsibilities - Build and lead the Network Solutions data and analytics organization: provide unified leadership across business intelligence engineering, data engineering, analytics, and reporting; recruit, grow, and retain a team spanning measurement scientists, data engineers, and analysts, building the function from 0-to-1 - Drive the measurement science and decisioning core: develop the causal inference-based framework that quantifies value creation across multiple dimensions; establish methodology standards, signal definitions, and utility function design that give Network Solutions a unified view of performance - Own the Network Solutions data foundation: own critical signal pipelines, govern data quality, and build a composable data architecture that all Network Solutions product and science teams build on; ensure measurements are interoperable across planning, routing, incident management, and workforce systems - Integrate measurement science into production systems: demonstrate the shift to value-informed decision-making; partner with product and engineering teams to embed measurement frameworks into planning, routing, and resource allocation - Interface with Amazon CS and company-wide data, analytics, and science organizations: represent Network solutions as a peer partner to central data infrastructure, customer experience measurement, and applied science functions; consolidate Network Solutions data demand into a clear, prioritized voice - Drive adoption of data standards and measurement frameworks: translate complex models and multi-dimensional utility functions into intuitive, actionable insights for non-technical stakeholders; establish shared measurement standards that teams across the organization can build on - Develop the long-term data and science roadmap: anticipate future needs as the organization scales; identify opportunities to extend measurement capabilities beyond Network Solutions About the team Network Solutions sits at the intersection of customer experience and associate experience within Amazon Customer Service, owning the logic and infrastructure that determines how those two sides are
