Do you enjoy a fast-paced, collaborative and supportive team environment that is obsessed with customers? If so, the Amazon Marketing Cloud – Ads + AWS Applications team may be a great fit for you.
The Business Intelligence Engineer will dive very deep into data and build insights to efficiently engage our Advertising Partners. At Amazon, everything starts with data. You will have an exciting opportunity to work with many talented, yet humble and friendly, peers across the globe.
An ideal candidate will be someone with broad technical background in data analytics, strong business acumen, high degree of ownership, and is customer obsessed.

They will have a strong bias towards data-driven decision making and will be comfortable with ambiguity while working in a fast-paced dynamic environment.

Key job responsibilities
This role will completely own the data visualization and reporting for our advertising partners. This includes developing scalable solutions that allows seamless reporting experience for end customers. As the owner of the pipeline you’ll have freedom to prioritize and chose the right technologies to meet our vision and to support 10x growth requirement over the next two years.
Additional Key responsibilities include:
A day in the life
Every day on the AMC Applications team can be different, depending on the needs of our customers, active projects and personal interests. Since the team is focusing on building both a platform and a series of applications that will exist on that platform, work can and will change with frequency, but a focus will be placed on making sure team members interests and skills are positively aligned with the projects they are assigned to.
Typically though, a day in the life of an AMC Business Analyst will consist of dedicated building time, a brief daily standup with the team to discuss wins, progress and roadblocks, and design/architecture meetings with our Technical Product Manager, Principal Engineer and SDEIIIs. Other semi-frequent, but not necessarily daily, activities would include customer meetings to understand user feedback, mentoring and coaching sessions with more junior colleagues, weekly team meetings and participating in organizational demos, discussion forums and activities.
About the team
The AMC Applications team will be a great fit for you if you’re looking for a space that is as technical as it is uncharted – our infrastructure needs to be built from the ground up and we need help not only dreaming it but also making it a reality. Our short-term focus is in identifying and building native AWS infrastructure and applications to make advertiser’s lives easier – from the CMO to the day to day practitioner. This means that not only will there be opportunity to dive deep into technical matters, zoom out to participate in design decisions and overall strategy, but also ample choice in variety; as soon as we ship one application we’ll be moving on to another to solve problems for a different persona. Maximizing customer delight will be our main guiding principle and so meeting with customers early and often to ensure all solutions solve the right problems, in the right way, is a core expectation for each member of AMC Applications.

Experience with other AWS technologies like S3, Redshift
Experience using visualization packages and scripting languages to automate reporting
