The Analytics & Insights AP will work on the Prime Video production team focusing on the NBA. This person will help shape the identity of Prime Video’s NBA and live sports offerings, especially as it relates to sports data.
We are looking for a candidate with great flexibility, an ability to deal with ambiguity, who will thrive in a startup environment.

The Analytics & Insights AP will primarily support our NBA productions, seeking opportunities to bring next-level basketball understanding to our broadcasts and fans.

In-season, the days follow the ebb and flow of the production schedule, contributing to live shows with a tight focus on bettering the customer experience.
Outside of NBA coverage, you will contribute to the use of data and insights into other Prime Video properties (i.e. NFL and NASCAR).
