Applied Scientist, Shopbop Catalog Engineering

Amazon • New York, NY • 10h ago

Description

Shopbop is a leading fashion retailor, and part of the Amazon family of companies. The Shopbop Data Scientist partners with business leaders, software teams, and data engineers to create the models and innovations required to advance Shopbop's business. Whether onboarding industry best-practices for seasonal demand prediction, partnering with engineers to launch ML-enabled features, or experimenting to drive new science approaches, your work will have a significant impact on Shopbop's mission to be "the destination for style inspiration". Your work will be a mix of building science-enabled pipelines to solve Shopbop business problems (eg. inventory placement for our expansive product catalog), acting as architect for ML-enabled features, or mentoring our organization of 90 technologists on how to better leverage science. You will have routine exposure to business leaders and opportunities to influence Shopbop's strategy. As a member of the Technology group you will have access to world-class technologists at Shopbop and our peers at Zappos and Amazon. Shopbop is still early in our adoption of Science and you can influence the tools and methodologies we use to bring science to production.

Key job responsibilities

Identify the right models and mechanisms to use to solve ambiguous science problems

Build development plans to launch new science features

Oversee work of peer SDEs on science initiatives

Develop critical path code for critical science features

Align senior leadership and developers on approach

A day in the life

You start your day reviewing an issue with higher that normal variance on a demand prediction pipeline, you identify there may be a data problem and make a note to raise with the DE team. You then go heads down to work on a new pipeline for Product Categorization, focusing on code you need to demo after standup. Post standup you and a peer TPM lead a discussion on some key tradeoffs and get alignment on next steps. You end the day working with DE, they've found the data bug and will get a fix in.
