Amazon Fulfillment Technology (AFT) designs, develops and operates the end-to-end fulfillment technology solutions for all Amazon Fulfillment Centers (FC). We harmonize the physical and virtual world so Amazon customers can get what they want, when they want it.
The AFT Science team has expertise in operations research, optimization, scheduling, planning, simulation, and machine learning.
