Description
As part of the AWS Solutions organization, we have a vision to provide business applications, leveraging Amazon’s unique experience and expertise, that are used by millions of companies worldwide to manage day-to-day operations. We will accomplish this by accelerating our customers’ businesses through delivery of intuitive and differentiated technology solutions that solve enduring business challenges. We blend vision with curiosity and Amazon’s real-world experience to build opinionated, turnkey solutions. Where customers prefer to buy over build, we become their trusted partner with solutions that are no-brainers to buy and easy to use.
We are looking for a motivated individual with strong technical / analytical skills and practical experience to join the AWS Industry Products (AIP) team as a Data Engineer. We’re looking for someone who has a solid data engineering background, established the data infrastructure needed for business intelligence, a strong ability to dive deep into extensive data sets, business acumen, a proven ability to deal with ambiguity, and the desire to impact crucial portfolio-level strategic decisions through data-driven analysis and insights.
Key job responsibilities
The ideal candidate will be a pathfinder able to create and drive results from scratch. In this role, you will:
Work closely with product managers, industry leaders, and the strategy team developing BI/analytics solutions that measure the performance and controllable inputs of new and existing products.
Identify new opportunities to use data for the improvement of products and product P&Ls.
Own and drive ad-hoc, deep-dive investigations into how data can guide existing and future customer + product journeys.
Design, develop, and maintain data infrastructure, pipelines, metrics, reports, and dashboards that drive department-wide business decisions.
Create new leadership dashboards, then test, deploy, and train users on their capabilities.

We are curious, passionate, fun, and like to GSD (get stuff done).
Why AWS
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform.
