Business Intelligence Engineer, Forecasting & Labs Analytics – Amazon – Toronto, ON

Business Intelligence Engineer, Forecasting & Labs Analytics at Amazon in Toronto, ON is a full-time role paying $76,400–$127,600 CAD annually. The position sits within Amazon’s supply chain operations, specifically on the team responsible for demand forecasting across tens of millions of products. These forecasts drive inventory ordering, placement decisions, and labour planning for hundreds of warehouses.

Day to day, you’ll work with rich datasets and tools including AWS Redshift and Tableau, partnering with Data Engineering, Data Science, and Program teams to detect, diagnose, and correct forecast problems. You’ll also develop reporting mechanisms and surface insights that help retail customers and downstream systems make better supply chain decisions.

About the Role: Business Intelligence Engineer, Forecasting & Labs Analytics

The work spans identifying where forecast accuracy can improve, designing solutions with product managers, scientists, and engineers, and generating the metrics those partners rely on. You’ll collaborate directly with machine learning and research scientists on forecasting challenges for new businesses, and communicate findings to customers in retail and downstream systems.

Earning trust with internal and external customers is a named part of the role. You’ll build and maintain reporting mechanisms that serve both audiences, which means your outputs need to be clear and reliable for non-technical stakeholders as well as engineering partners.
