Job Description
The Financial Research Operations Support Team (FROST) helps guide businesses to launch with sustainable and accurate financial processing on Amazon platform technologies. We obsess over accuracy, consistency, and completeness of financial data. We constantly strive to eradicate any system defects to ensure complete and accurate financial data for our customers.
In this position, you will dig deep into the workflows and data stores of each of Amazon?s businesses. You must be able to understand and navigate complex business processes and technologies. You should be comfortable interacting with software development engineers, accounting, business owners, external payment partners, and senior leadership. You will have the opportunity to learn all of our internal businesses and work with a wide range of stakeholders. We value personality, an ability to navigate ambiguity, keen insight, and sound business judgement.
This position is expected to have sufficient finance/accounting understanding to help the new business launch team identify issues, opine on reporting requirements, and have a solid understanding of computing system interaction. This role requires excellent communication and organization skills, including the ability to anticipate, identify and communicate risks to accounting, finance, businesses and technical teams. You must be able to work independently, remain flexible with the ability to prioritize workloads, and maintain a strong attention to detail in a fast-paced environment. Similarly, this position is expected to manipulate and mine large data sets to identify, isolate, and communicate findings to stakeholders.
The right individual will have solid business judgment, a strong controllership focus, and the capability to drive a fast paced organization to the right results with a focused and pragmatic approach to the business. You must be a fast learner, who can quickly absorb the nuances of Amazon?s varied payment offerings as well as the behavior of Amazon?s internal systems. You will be analytical and data driven in decision making, with a demonstrated ability to drive issues to completion.
