In 2021, Amazon’s Supply Chain Optimization Technologies (SCOT) organization announced the establishment of the SCOT/INFORMS scholarships program to help expand the pipeline of operations research, management science, and analytics talent from underrepresented backgrounds.

Today Amazon SCOT is announcing the newest INFORMS cohort. This year’s class comprises 15 recipients who are pursuing degrees or possible careers in industrial and systems engineering, systems science, statistics and operations research, supply chain analytics, transportation supply chain management, civil engineering, and computer science.

“I am profoundly grateful to the Amazon SCOT science team for the support to attend and participate in the INFORMS annual meeting,” said Vivian Nwadiaru, a PhD candidate at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst. “As a beneficiary of the program, I get to have access to mentors and resources within the Amazon Science team, which to me is a rare and delightful networking opportunity.”

To ensure inclusivity, the recipients include those who are either already actively engaged in operations research (OR) and management science (MS) studies as well as those who have had little to no training in traditional OR/MS courses but are considering graduate studies or careers in these fields.

"Being able to attend INFORMS is a tremendous opportunity,” noted Ryan Rodriguez, an undergrad at the Georgia Institute of Technology. “I am very grateful to have the chance to attend high-impact sessions on research I am interested in, network with peers, and explore exciting potential collaborations with those in similar fields. This scholarship has accelerated my path towards a PhD.”

Members of this year's class — comprising undergrad juniors and seniors as well as graduate students — receive free conference registration and stipends to cover hotel accommodations and transportation expenses for those who attend in person.

"I'm thrilled for the chance to attend INFORMS through the Amazon SCOT scholarship,” said Ayesha Farooq, a graduate student at Kansas State University. “It's a fantastic opportunity to learn, network, and contribute."

This year’s cohort will also be provided opportunities to connect with Amazon SCOT scientists to explore mentorship and networking opportunities; to meet with members of the INFORMS Minority Issues Forum, ambassador graduate students, and INFORMS staff; and to attend INFORMS society meetings and university-sponsored receptions, as well as plenaries, selected talks/posters, and tutorials.

2023 SCOT INFORMS recipients: Fernando Acosta-Perez, Adeola Adegbemijo, Nathan Adeyemi, Grace Babalola, Ayesha Farooq, Henry Ivuawuogu, Caroline Johnston, Jiayue-Sylvia Li, Ogechi Vivian Nwadiaru, Paula Penagos, Anastasia Rivera, Ryan Rodriguez, Austin Iglesias Saragih, Jessica Shi, and Morgan Wood

    Advancing AI requires more than breakthrough models. It depends on communities of builders and researchers who experiment, test assumptions, and share what they learn. That belief is guiding how Amazon engages developers and academics around Amazon Nova, Amazon’s portfolio of AI offerings including the Nova models, Nova Forge and Nova Act.

Sr. Research Scientist, Pricing Science
US, WA, Seattle
Amazon's Worldwide Pricing & Promotions organization is seeking a talented, hands-on Research Scientist to join the Pricing and Promotion Optimization Science (P2OS) team — the optimization "application layer" within Amazon's Pricing Sciences organization. Amazon adjusts prices on hundreds of millions of products daily across a global marketplace; P2OS is the team that makes those prices optimal. P2OS is a small, specialized unit with an outsized charter: develop and maintain the models that determine optimal prices and promotions across Amazon's catalog and merchant programs. We own the full optimization stack — from price prediction to promotion targeting to competitiveness guardrails — and we measure success in terms of accretive Gross Contribution and Customer Pricing Perception (GCCP). Our work spans Retail Core, Amazon Business, Fresh, Grocery, and international marketplaces, and we are continually investing in more extensible, generalizable science foundations to keep pace with a growing and evolving business. We are looking for an innovative, organized, and customer-focused scientist with exceptional machine learning and predictive modeling skills, causal and experimental evaluation experience, and the entrepreneurial spirit to apply state-of-the-art methods to some of the most impactful pricing problems in e-commerce. You should be comfortable with ambiguity, motivated by measurable business impact, and excited by the opportunity to work at Amazon-scale. Key job responsibilities * Innovate and build. Design, develop, and deploy machine learning models that set optimal prices and promotions across Amazon's global catalog. Own models end-to-end — from problem formulation and data analysis through offline evaluation, A/B testing, and production launch. * Build a generalizable science foundation. Develop models and evaluation frameworks designed to scale across merchant programs, product categories, and marketplaces — enabling cross-learning and reducing the time and cost of applying science to new business contexts. * Build and evolve optimization systems. Design and improve optimization systems — including reinforcement learning and multi-objective optimization approaches — that automate price and promotion decisions at scale across millions of products. * Apply generative AI and foundation models. Identify and pursue opportunities to leverage large language models, embeddings, and generative AI techniques in pricing science — from enriching product representations and extracting competitive signals from unstructured data, to building more capable and explainable pricing systems. * Experiment rigorously. Design and execute A/B tests and causal inference studies to measure the business and customer impact of pricing model changes. Translate findings into production-ready science improvements. * Stay at the frontier. Establish mechanisms to track the latest advances in reinforcement learning, causal ML, multi-objective optimization, generative AI, and demand modeling — and identify opportunities to apply them to Pricing & Promotions business problems. * See the big picture. Contribute to the long-term scientific vision for how Amazon sets competitive, perception-preserving prices — balancing profitability, customer trust, and marketplace health.
