Amazon's eCommerce Foundation (eCF) organization provides the core technologies that drive and power Amazon's Stores, Digital, and Other (SDO) businesses.

Millions of customer page views and orders per day are enabled by the systems eCF builds from the ground up.

CloudTune, within eCF, empowers growth and business agility needs by automatically and efficiently managing AWS capacity and business processes needed to safely meet Amazon's customer demand.

CloudTune serves its primary customers, internal software teams, through forecast-driven automation of cost controllership, capacity management, and scaling.

We predict expected load, and drive procurement and allocation of AWS capacity for new product launches and high-velocity events like Prime Day and Cyber Monday.

CloudTune is looking for a Data Scientist to join our forecasting and optimization team.

The team develops sophisticated algorithms that combine machine learning-based demand forecasting with mathematical optimization to solve large-scale capacity planning problems under uncertainty.

We work with massive datasets — spanning thousands of availability zone and instance family combinations across global regions — to determine optimal resource allocation strategies that balance infrastructure holding costs against service availability requirements.

These models directly inform multi-million dollar capacity investment decisions and drive automated procurement, retention, and release policies across Amazon's compute infrastructure.

As a Data Scientist in CloudTune, you will work with other scientists, software engineers, data engineers, and product managers on a variety of important research problems in the areas of stochastic optimization, time series modeling, and operations research.

You will work on statistical problems with a high level of ambiguity.

You will analyze and process large amounts of data, develop new algorithms and improve existing approaches based on statistical models, machine learning algorithms and big data solutions to automatically scale Amazon’s compute infrastructure, optimizing the balance between availability risk and cost efficiency for all of Amazon businesses.

- Process and analyze large data sets, mining additional data sources as needed - Build statistical models and drive scalable solutions for multi-year capacity demand forecasting horizons - Create, enhance, and maintain technical documentation, and present to other scientists and business leaders

- Process and analyze large-scale operational data to identify patterns and inform model development

- Create, enhance, and maintain technical documentation, and present research findings to scientists, engineering teams, and senior leadership

- 3+ years of data querying languages (e.g. SQL), scripting languages (e.g. Python) or statistical/mathematical software (e.g. R, SAS, Matlab, etc.) experience

- 3+ years of machine learning/statistical modeling data analysis tools and techniques, and parameters that affect their performance experience

- Experience applying quantitative analysis to solve business problems and making data-driven business decisions

- Knowledge of machine learning concepts and their application to reasoning and problem-solving

- Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining, a Master's degree or above in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM)

- Experience effectively communicating complex concepts through written and verbal communication

- Knowledge of relevant statistical measures such as confidence intervals, significance of error measurements, development and evaluation data sets, etc.
