    Highlights

    You will build deep contextual knowledge of those measurement and accounting systems and define the completeness, accuracy, correlation, and causality analyses that turn raw, multi-source data into disclosure-ready information; prototype those analyses on real data; ensure data quality through scalable testing; draw correlations across domains (and against financials) in a way that is rigorous and makes business sense; and partner with our internal tech teams to scale the winning solutions. Partner cross-functionally with data providers and measurement teams, report owners, and controllership - translating complex data-quality findings into plain language for non-technical stakeholders and senior leaders.

    Description

    Join us at the forefront of Amazon"s sustainability initiatives to work on environmental and social advancements to support Amazon"s long term worldwide sustainability strategy. At Amazon, we"re working to be the most customer-centric company on earth. To get there, we need exceptionally talented, bright, and driven people.

    The Worldwide Sustainability (WWS) organization capitalizes on Amazon's scale and speed to build a more resilient and sustainable company. We manage our social and environmental impacts globally, and drive solutions that enable our customers, businesses, and the world to become more sustainable.

    The Sustainability Reporting, Enablement and Governance (S-REG) team"s mission is to build a lasting, scalable and trusted sustainability reporting infrastructure to satisfy regulatory requirements and stakeholder expectations. We translate external requirements into internal needs and build tools and mechanisms that enable Amazon businesses to meet their Sustainability reporting obligations and effectively manage their Sustainability risks and opportunities.

    We are looking for a result-oriented, self-starter Business Analyst who is passionate about using data and automation to simplify complex sustainability reporting. You bring a builder mindset, a clear point of view on how AI tools can support and scale analytical work, and the ability to thrive in ambiguity - structuring problems, reaching defensible conclusions, and documenting clearly.

    You are the analytical owner for how we validate and make sense of disclosure data across sustainability domains - including but not limited to carbon, energy, water, waste, and workforce. You will build deep contextual knowledge of those measurement and accounting systems and define the completeness, accuracy, correlation, and causality analyses that turn raw, multi-source data into disclosure-ready information; prototype those analyses on real data; ensure data quality through scalable testing; draw correlations across domains (and against financials) in a way that is rigorous and makes business sense; and partner with our internal tech teams to scale the winning solutions. Your work directly determines whether Amazon can produce sustainability disclosures that are accurate, explainable, and defensible under external assurance.

    Key job responsibilities

    Extract, transform, and present data from upstream systems for internal pre-reviews, statutory reporting, and external disclosures across sustainability domains (carbon, energy, water, waste, workforce).

    Develop and implement scalable testing mechanisms for internal pre-review examinations and assurance readiness - completeness, accuracy, and reconciliation checks that flag defects early and prioritize them by materiality.

    Evaluate and improve data collection and ingestion processes, proposing solutions that enhance scalability and eliminate redundancies - including the right detection and prevention rules to embed in upstream systems so defects are caught (or avoided) at the source.

    Draw correlations across domains (and against financials) in a way that is rigorous and makes business sense, so reported trends are explainable and defensible under external assurance.

    Rapidly prototype new analytics and validation approaches (including with GenAI tooling) to prove value on real data, then hand well-specified requirements to internal tech partners to build and scale.

    Partner cross-functionally with data providers and measurement teams, report owners, and controllership - translating complex data-quality findings into plain language for non-technical stakeholders and senior leaders.

    Own the analytics that validate whether upstream controls are operating as intended (e.g., completeness of automated checks, detection of bypass or override), partnering with controllership teams to specify control requirements for new solutions before they move to production.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles
    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
