The MiddleMidle Transportation Technology team builds the underlying technology that powers Amazons middlemile network across the globe. The Planning and Network team owns systems that take demand for middlemile freight movements for Amazon and produces a plan that meets demand and supply constraints while minimizing costs improve truck utilization by consolidating freight and creating multistop plans. This is a unique opportunity to work on NP Hard problems/Algorithms that saves Amazon MM of $ in freight movements.
The ideal SDE will be instrumental in shaping the product direction developing and tuning algorithms with research scientists collaborate with stakeholders to model the planning components and develop scalable systems that help us build a planning flywheel highest performance at the lowest cost and with the best delivery experience. You will work with other tech teams to model and consume inputs such as carrier supply cost/rates transit times and distances in an efficient and automated fashion. The work done on the team will help our transportation systems scale beyond just road transportation to Air Rail and Ocean to build a truly multimodal global transportation network.
