  amazon business intelligence engineer interview: Mastering Project Discovery Elliot Bendoly, Daniel Bachrach, Kathy Koontz, Porter Schermerhorn, 2024-04-11 Introducing a comprehensive approach to invigorate project leadership, this book provides a framework – the OUtCoMES Cycle – for developing, managing, advancing, and optimizing engineering and analytics projects. All too often, issues of moral hazard and completion bias prevent engineering and analytics managers and team leaders from asking the critical question 'What’s the problem?', before committing time, energy, and resources to solve it. This book draws attention to the definition, structuring, option consideration and ultimately the addressing of the right problems, exploring the OUtCoMES Cycle framework that facilitates and energizes systematic thinking, knowledge sharing, and on-the-fly adjustment with an explicit focus on the maximization of value and ROI. Each chapter includes discussions and lessons in analytical and engineering problem identification, problem structuring, iterative problem development (mental and computational) and problem resolution, at least three embedded real-world case studies, and a closing 'Practitioner’s Recap' to contextualize key chapter takeaways. Written by a team of established academic scholars and practicing analysts and engineers, this is an accessible and culture-shifting action guide for instructors interested in training the next generation of project and analytics leaders, students of analytics and engineering, as well as practicing project leaders and principals.

  amazon business intelligence engineer interview: 你玩遊戲,還是遊戲玩你?:一場無法登出的遊戲,公司、政府和學校如何利用遊戲來控制我們所有人 安瑞恩.韓(Adrian Hon), 2024-03-28 在當今的遊戲化時代,你不再是玩家, 而是被玩弄。 這個由科技主導的世界試圖讓我們相信,痛苦就是樂趣。 遊戲如何變成了操控的工具,我們又該如何面對? ※《紐約時報》、《經濟學人》、《出版人週刊》、《愛爾蘭獨立報》、《圖書館雜誌》、Gizmodo等各大媒體一致好評!! ※蔡依橙 【陪你看國際新聞】創辦人│Lucien Chen 微軟動視暴雪King-資深遊戲設計師/前PlayStation、Electronic Arts遊戲設計師/遊戲設計中藥舖專欄作家│李志德 資深新聞工作者│朱宥勳 作家│朱家安 作家/魂系玩家…………………讚譽推薦! 隨著遊戲化滲透各個角落,我們的世界愈來愈像一場無法登出的遊戲, 不論是社群網路、交易軟體、金融信用分數、陰謀論、社會信用制度, 失敗的後果不再只是「再試一下」的友善鼓勵, 我們賭上的是生計,而且更糟的還在後頭。 ➔➔➔「遊戲化」通常被認為是一件好事。將遊戲融入到生活的其他部分,像是定期鍛鍊,使其變得更有趣、更有挑戰性,讓我們在做平凡的事情時感覺更好。這不是很棒嗎?優秀的遊戲有一個驚人的學習曲線,可以讓你從笨手笨腳的菜鳥變成大師(甚至在你意識到自己這麼快就學會了之前)。 然而,當遊戲化以強制性和操縱性的方式應用時,當遊戲技術被用來推動不斷增長的工作配額或做為社會監視機制時,或者,當它們被用來引發陰謀論或誘發成癮行為時,就會出現更大的問題。不幸的是,遊戲化被用來物化人、否認人性的例子太多了。 ●一名電話客服人員耐心地為一位客戶進行列表機的故障排除,與此同時,他的螢幕角落有一個卡通人物會在他聽起來不夠投入的時候責備他。●倉儲工人忙碌地打包包裹,以勞力催促著螢幕上虛擬的飛龍賽跑;如果他們打敗別的同事,就能獲得獎賞,如果輸了,可能會受到懲罰。●一名精疲力盡的Uber司機需要額外的現金,所以他接受了App彈跳出來的訊息要求:多載運三趟以獲得六塊美金的獎勵。●政府試圖記錄公民所做的一切行為,使用積分來分發(或剝奪)特權。●而你的手機上,各式各樣的App利用遊戲機制在掏空你的錢包。 這並不是一個反烏托邦的幻想:積分、徽章、成就、排行榜正慢慢地潛入現代生活中的每一個面向。《你玩遊戲,還是遊戲玩你?》作者安瑞恩在牛津大學攻讀神經科學博士學位,從事遊戲開發十多年,他深諳工作場所如何利用遊戲化來讓員工發揮更多作用(同時不給他們任何回報),並對企業、學校以及政府使用遊戲來操控員工、學生和所有人的行為做出抨擊。 雖然這個被稱為「遊戲化」(gamification)的趨勢有時對我們有益,安瑞恩則讓我們看見,事實上它更常是對行為、生理與情緒的高科技剝削。這些遊戲常常讓我們沒有選擇餘地玩下去,失敗以後不會有一個令人開心的「再試一次」的結果,而是真實的財務或社會性的處罰。 本書揭示遊戲化如何剝奪我們的覺知意識,為什麼大公司如亞馬遜及Uber如此熱中於運用遊戲化來管理員工,以及何以將我們的整個生活轉變為地獄般的遊戲,永遠也掙脫不出。為此,我們需要直面遊戲化的挑戰和濫用,並確保它可以用來改善我們的生活,而不是讓情況變得更糟。 【各界讚譽】 ★富啟發性且具有說服力。──《紐約時報》書評 ★這份充滿激情的調查是對工作者和政治領導人的警鐘。──《出版人週刊》 ★本書審視了遊戲化的興起,以及人們如何利用科技以微妙的方式直接觸及我們的心智,用來剝削我們並且剝奪我們的人性,堪稱必讀之作。 ──馬丁.福特(Martin Ford),矽谷軟體開發公司創辦人、趨勢先驅 ★安瑞恩寫出了一部精彩的作品,本書談論了我們如何漸漸走向卡關的反烏托邦社會,因為本應做為啦啦隊和教練引導我們向上的技術,卻被人拿來當成賺錢的工具,扮演著工頭和騙子的角色。 ──布拉德福德.德隆(J. Bradford DeLong),加州大學柏克萊分校經濟學教授 ★此書就像是安瑞恩筆下的那些遊戲(和遊戲化)一樣令人上癮、惱怒、卻又同時感到心滿意足。說實話,讀這本書猶如開了盞燈:我再也無法以相同的方式看待我的智慧型手機了。 ──安妮.海倫.彼得森(Anne Helen Petersen),BuzzFeed資深文化撰稿人、《集體倦怠》(Can’t Even: How Millennials Became the Burnout Generation)作者 ★這是對於遊戲化失控危險亟需的警鐘,遊戲化將操縱粉飾為樂趣,政治與利益則成了唯一真正的贏家。對於熱愛遊戲、人類自由以及任何仍相信遊戲應該是有趣的人來說,這是必讀之作。 ──大衛.賽克斯(David Sax),《老派科技的逆襲》(The Revenge of Analog: Real Things and Why They Matter)作者

  amazon business intelligence engineer interview: Business Intelligence Strategy and Big Data Analytics Steve Williams, 2016-04-08 Business Intelligence Strategy and Big Data Analytics is written for business leaders, managers, and analysts - people who are involved with advancing the use of BI at their companies or who need to better understand what BI is and how it can be used to improve profitability. It is written from a general management perspective, and it draws on observations at 12 companies whose annual revenues range between $500 million and $20 billion. Over the past 15 years, my company has formulated vendor-neutral business-focused BI strategies and program execution plans in collaboration with manufacturers, distributors, retailers, logistics companies, insurers, investment companies, credit unions, and utilities, among others. It is through these experiences that we have validated business-driven BI strategy formulation methods and identified common enterprise BI program execution challenges. In recent years, terms like big data and big data analytics have been introduced into the business and technical lexicon. Upon close examination, the newer terminology is about the same thing that BI has always been about: analyzing the vast amounts of data that companies generate and/or purchase in the course of business as a means of improving profitability and competitiveness. Accordingly, we will use the terms BI and business intelligence throughout the book, and we will discuss the newer concepts like big data as appropriate. More broadly, the goal of this book is to share methods and observations that will help companies achieve BI success and thereby increase revenues, reduce costs, or both. - Provides ideas for improving the business performance of one's company or business functions - Emphasizes proven, practical, step-by-step methods that readers can readily apply in their companies - Includes exercises and case studies with road-tested advice about formulating BI strategies and program plans
