    Amazon Operational Strategy & People Analytics Externship

    Imagine shaping how AMAZON — yes, THE Amazon — welcomes and keeps its workforce. Every year, Amazon loses billions because new hires leave before Day 90. You’re going to fix that. In this externship, you’ll web scrape real-world employee reviews from across the web, extract actionable insights, and design persona-driven strategies to help Learning Ambassadors connect smarter, faster, and more humanely. It’s part research, part strategy—and all about learning how people data drives big decisions.

Overview

During my externship at Amazon, I focused on enhancing employee retention strategies by analyzing real-world employee reviews. By extracting insights from these reviews, I aimed to design effective, persona-driven strategies for Learning Ambassadors, ultimately addressing the high turnover rates among new hires before Day 90.

What I've accomplished

I produced a role-by-role spreadsheet of AFC positions and exported cleaned, analysis-ready CSVs of Glassdoor and YouTube text with tokenized keywords and sentiment scores.

Project breakdown

I mapped AFC roles, listing responsibilities, who each role worked closely with, common tools, and why each role mattered. The submission produced a role-by-role spreadsheet capturing Learning Ambassadors, pickers, packers, stowers, water spiders, and area managers.

Google Sheets
Access

I collected Glassdoor reviews and YouTube transcripts, cleaned transcription errors and duplicate entries, added a sentiment column, removed low-value columns, and exported an analysis-ready CSV and cleaned spreadsheets for further analysis.

Google Sheets
Access

I cleaned Glassdoor and YouTube text, tokenized keywords, added sentiment scores, and compared platforms. The analysis showed Glassdoor emphasized pay, benefits, and work environment, while YouTube focused on daily shifts and was more positive.

Overview

In this consulting engagement, I collaborated on evaluating enterprise security risks across multiple simulated organizations. The project required analytical problem-solving, stakeholder-focused communication, and the ability to translate complex findings into practical recommendations for executive decision-making.

Enterprise Security Assessment Project

What I've accomplished

I conducted end-to-end penetration testing across multiple enterprise environments, using structured analysis to identify critical security risks and evaluate their business impact. Working closely with a teammate, I translated technical findings into clear, executive-ready recommendations and co-developed a comprehensive client report that prioritized remediation strategies.

Outcome

I helped identify five critical and three high-risk vulnerabilities across multiple enterprise environments and developed prioritized remediation strategies to reduce organizational risk. This project strengthened my ability to connect technical findings to business impact and communicate recommendations that support informed decision-making and long-term security improvements.
