The ideal candidate is a highly analytical, critical thinker with advanced problem-solving, data mining, and software development skills. You will work closely with software engineers, applied scientists, product managers, and operations stakeholders to translate complex capacity data into business intelligence that informs planning and real-time decision systems.

A day in the life

1. Collaborate with the Engineering and Science teams to define new capacity tracking features, construct data pipelines for capacity ingestion and consumption, and validate new system functionalities

2. Conduct deep dives into capacity anomalies - such as unexpected capacity breaches, misaligned resource configurations, or consumption spikes - and generate insights for leadership and product management

3. Build and maintain dashboards that visualize the end-to-end lifecycle of resource capacity: from initial configuration by resource owners, through real-time consumption tracking, to exhaustion and risk notification

4. Analyze differences or discrepancies between expected and actual capacity utilization across outbound resources (sort centers, delivery stations, fulfillment centers)

5. Use inputs from capacity resource owners and FO decision system teams to define new data requirements and measurement frameworks

6. Support peak event readiness (Prime Day, holiday season) by ensuring capacity data systems are performant, accurate, and providing timely risk signals
