What are the responsibilities and job description for the Director, PM-T , Devices Science Optimization (DSO) position at Amazon?
Description
You will build and lead the measurement, experimentation, and value attribution function for Amazon's Devices & Services organization. Your team is the shared science infrastructure informing production optimization systems that serve all Devices product lines, marketing pods, and Finance leadership with causal evidence of what Devices are worth and whether our investments are working.
This is not simply a traditional analytics or measurement role. You will own an active experimentation mandate by designing and running tests that produce the causal inputs for pricing decisions, marketing optimization, merchandizing options, and portfolio strategy. Your outputs provide the causal evidence base that senior leadership consume to make billions of dollars in investment decisions across the D&S portfolio. You will also own the economic models that validate and drive execution across the full surface area of marketing spend for devices and services.
Your experimentation organization will directly shape how customers experience Amazon Devices & Services- from the prices they see to the promotions they receive to the features we invest in- by providing the causal evidence that determines where D&S allocates resources to improve the customer journey.
