In an industry first, APS seamlessly aligns Amazon's business controls by uniting leading-edge supply and demand forecasts with a state-of-the-art coordination framework - respecting the distributed ownership of business logic and outcomes. As the centralized planning system, APS takes charge of coordinating all fulfillment, inventory, and operational decisions, maximizing WW Long Term Free Cash Flow (LTFCF) over a 1-year horizon

The Long-Term Planning team is part of the Supply Chain Optimization Technology (SCOT) Team within the Operations Organization. The charter of the SCOT team is to maximize Amazon's return on our inventory investment in terms of Free Cash Flow and customer satisfaction.

You will build models that make our data more actionable and help us make complex business decisions at scale.
