Retail Business Services (RBS) supports Amazon’s Retail business growth WW through three core tasks: (a) Selection, where RBS sources, creates and enrich ASINs to drive GMS growth; (b) Defect Elimination, where RBS resolves inbound supply chain defects and develops root cause fixes to improve free cash flow; and (c) supporting operational processes for WW Retail teams where there is an air gap in the tech stack. The tech team in RBS develops automation that leverages Machine/Deep Learning to scale execution of these highly complex tasks that currently require human cognitive skills. Our solutions ensure that information in Amazon's catalog is complete, correct, and comprehensive enough to give Amazon customers a great shopping experience every time. That's where you can help.
