Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa Amazon Full time

Business Intelligence Engineer, AWS Support BI & AnalyticsAWS Sales, Marketing, and Global Services (SMGS) is responsible for driving revenue, adoption, and growth from the largest and fastest growing small- and mid-market accounts to enterprise-level customers including public sector.

The AWS Global Support team interacts with leading companies and believes that world-class support is critical to customer success.

AWS Support also partners with a global list of customers that are building mission-critical applications on top of AWS services.

Are you a passionate Business Intelligence Engineer (BI Engineer) who wants to make a real impact on a big business? Read on

We are looking for seasoned Business Intelligence Engineers to join a BI team in the AWS Support organization.

AWS Support, despite the impression that its name ("support") might give you, is not a typical reactive customer service, but an independent AWS business that provides industry-leading offerings way beyond just "break-fix".

The business has a self-standing P&L and has even yielded revenue larger than most AWS Services.

Managing an organization that provides support for ever-expanding AWS product portfolio to millions of customers across the globe is not a simple task and leaders in all functions inevitably need reliable data for their day-to-day operations and strategic decision-makings.

The BI team is an integrated core part of the AWS Support operations delivering robust and trustworthy infrastructure to the truly data-driven organization.


As BI Engineer, you will work closely with internal stakeholders to define key performance indicators (KPIs) through your deep understanding in support business and operations and implement the KPIs into dashboards/reports that drive the decisions made by senior leadership.

The BI Engineers will have opportunities to not just exercise her/his technical skills such as SQL to retrieve data and convert it to simple graphs and tables, but to develop true dashboards that are information-rich and flexible yet intuitive and easy-to-use that help the support leadership quickly discover golden insights to serve AWS customers better.

You will let the data answer questions such as "What is high/low quality means at support?", "Is this particular customer happy with their support experience? ", and "How productive is this support agent versus other agents in the network?" The usage of the data that the AWS Support BI team publishes spans to other AWS teams outside of the organization.

Support data serves as one of key leading indicators for new customer demands and for problems yet to be discovered.

Such external usage might lead to "next big thing" launched by AWS


From technology perspectives, you will have opportunities to (and will be asked to) be exposed to the modern agile cloud-based data technologies.

The team will be empowered to select the right technology, if necessary, based on customer needs and you will have the full set of AWS services in your toolbox.

Key job responsibilities

  • Understand the problem that's loosely defined or structured.
  • Provides BI solutions for difficult problems and works on delivering large BI solutions.
  • Provides solutions that drive team's business decisions and highlight new opportunities.
  • Improves code quality and optimizes BI processes.
  • Basic understanding of a scripting language. Knows how to model data and design a data pipeline. Able to apply basic statistical methods (e.g. regression) for difficult business problems.
