You will design data pipelines, build analytical platforms, and develop AI-powered tools that operations leaders use daily to monitor performance, identify root causes, and drive decisions across a network that moves millions of packages every day.

This is a high-impact role where your work directly shapes how leadership understands and acts on metrics like Delivery Estimate Accuracy (DEA), Process Failure Rate (Xenith), and trailer inspection quality (VTI).

You will own data modeling for new metric onboarding, drive migration of legacy SQL workloads to modern platforms, manage infrastructure-as-code with AWS CDK across gamma and production environments, and implement monitoring, alerting, and validation frameworks to ensure pipeline reliability. You will collaborate with operations leaders and data scientists to translate business needs into data solutions that scale.

The base salary range for this position is listed below. Your Amazon package will include sign-on payments and restricted stock units (RSUs). Final compensation will be determined based on factors including experience, qualifications, and location.
