Amazon is looking for a Business Intelligence Engineer to help manage our ever growing information needs and support analysis of increasingly complex business questions. You will design and execute ongoing programs of experimentation and study which inform these efforts. This will include working closely with software engineers to create innovative randomized experiments within the constraints of production software systems. You will seek out hidden and valuable correlations between the easily-measurable and the hard-to-quantify, within immense volumes of real-world data. You will also formulate quantitative metrics which allow us to track our progress, and then devise creative measurement and audit solutions which allow us to track those metrics with minimal cost and human effort. You will provide input into business and technical direction, steering broader solutions in support of these objectives. This role is expected to push the boundaries of measurability without sacrificing rigor.
