Amazon's Global Talent Management and Compensation (GTMC) Center for Applied Science and Economics (CASE) builds science models supporting employee career-related experiences such as their evaluation, learning and development, onboarding, and promotion for Amazonians. Additionally, the team conducts experiments for a wide range of employee and talent-related product features, and measures the impact of product and program initiatives in enhancing our employees' career experiences at Amazon.

Amazon's GTMC team is looking for Economists who are highly specialized in the field of macroeconomics and time series forecasting. The economist will enhance science models by enabling them to adapt to external talent dynamics, enabling personalized, consistent, and high-impact employee experiences across the talent lifecycle. This will make the models more responsive to evolving market conditions and enhance the alignment of Amazon-wide talent strategies with team and organization-specific strategic objectives.

Key job responsibilities
The Economists within GTMC will be primarily involved in building advanced forecasting and time series models that account for the nuances of aggregate econometric modeling within the HR space. This includes modeling the inter-relationship of various talent outcomes, as well as scenario planning and modeling tasks to quantify the implications of external macro as well as industry-level shocks on key HR talent outcomes.

The economists will closely collaborate with a range of scientists from different backgrounds, as well as program and product leaders, to implement and assess the science solutions into the company's products.
