Open original postingAt Amazon, we're working to be the most Customer-centric company on earth. One customer experience that we’re constantly looking to take to a new level is how we fulfill and deliver their orders. Our goal is to exceed the expectations of all our customers by ensuring that their orders, no matter how large or small are delivered where and when they need them, as quickly, accurately, and cost effectively as possible. To meet this goal, Amazon is continually striving to innovate and provide best in class service levels through the introduction of pioneering new products and services in the last mile delivery space. Come join the team and help us make history!
Key job responsibilities
The role will own the re-engineering of the current automated forecasting model, Fleet Requirement Planning [FRP], to:
(1) integrate new Amazon organization van requirements (e.g. Ship With Amazon (SWA) /Delivery Service Partner (DSP) Lite);
(2) move to clustering, probability-based modelling and agentic AI;
(3) scale optimization models with objective function being the operational costs;
(4) evolve the user interface from Excel based to a more friendly dashboard;
(5) integrate new supply channels and netting logics within the model (e.g. van sharing, off-season vans, vehicle multi use etc.) to drive the related sourcing accordingly;
(6) integrate seamless both upstream and downstream (approvals) processes.
(7) scale Fleet Requirement Planning to Middle Mile
(8) supporting effectively critical business decisions (Capex/Opex, rental/lease/cross country transfer, vehicle type mix, asset utilization etc.) based on risk assessment and long term constraints. Visibility will be key for the success of the program.
For this purpose you will develop a “digital twin” of the FRP models where to perform “what if analysis”, multiple planning scenarios and investment analysis to define “alternative” demand and supply plans, in collaboration with Finance and other Stakeholder teams.
A day in the life
• Design and develop scalable Fleet demand modelling;
• Integrate closely with finance business partners to ensure plans are efficient and meet Peak demand, to ensure efficient ordering process
• Define and own Fleet Demand forecasting accuracy metric
• Be accountable for the timely “buy in” from VP/Senior Stakeholder about the significant Fleet CAPEX investment and OPEX decisions;
• Consolidate input from a different set of stakeholders and ensure fleet plans always consume the latest available assumptions;
• Drive the transition to electrification (EV planning Business As Usual) and integration of MoT into Fleet Requirement Planning;
• Extend FRP process to new business customer organization (SWA, DSP Lite) and countries to be launched over the next years;
