Optimization Science is a core team involved in the end-to-end design and implementation of various decision-making systems, which manage the trade-off between capex and capacity availability while matching demand and supply at different planning horizons. The stakeholders and partners include engineering and product management orgs within EC2 as well as the AWS Infrastructure Supply Chain (AIS) organization.We are seeking an expert with a strong background in mathematical optimization with excellent modeling skills, and expertise in the numerical solution of continuous and discrete problems using exact and and heuristic methods applied to very large-scale problems. Experience with decision-making under uncertainty; e.g., robust or stochastic optimization is an advantage. The candidate will apply their knowledge to match the end-customer demand for virtual machines to physical resource supply at horizons ranging from five minutes to 13 years. The variety of problems requires principled mathematical decomposition and a good interface design between inputs and outputs at various horizons. Navigating the ambiguity of design choices across horizons is a critical component of the role. In a typical project, we analyze large volumes of data, and then develop a prescriptive optimization model with inputs from ML or statistical models and business users. Our solution approaches are validated through simulations and / or production A/B tests.
