You will work at the intersection of decarbonization strategy emissions measurement and strategic inventory quality partnering with suppliers internal engineering teams and cross-functional stakeholders to continuously improve how AWS collects validates and operationalizes Scope 3 emissions data. Your decisions on data quality and inventory methodology will directly shape AWSs ability to set credible decarbonization targets prioritize abatement actions and maintain confidence in reported emissions reductions. This is a high-visibility role where your work will directly influence AWSs carbon footprint reporting and decarbonization strategy.

Key job responsibilities
Own Scope 3 supplier data inventory management: Manage the collection ingestion and reconciliation of supplier-reported GHG emissions data (Scope 1 2 and upstream Scope 3) allocated to AWS products ensuring alignment with the GHG Protocol Scope 3 Standard and AWSs Supply Chain GHG Data Collection Guidance.



Model forward-looking emissions trajectories: Develop and maintain supplier-level emissions forecasting models that integrate historical allocated emissions data committed decarbonization pathways and projected abatement actions to estimate future Scope 3 inventory trends. Use these models to support target-setting scenario analysis and progress-to-goal tracking against AWSs supplier decarbonization milestones (e.g. 2030 intensity reduction targets).



Drive data accuracy and quality improvement: Design and implement data validation frameworks quality scoring mechanisms and anomaly detection processes to identify and resolve discrepancies in supplier-reported emissions data. Establish and track data quality metrics over time.
