Amazon has many services and one of the biggest products they have is AWS. It stands for Amazon Web Services and is a cloud services platform. As part of their cloud services platform, Amazon also has skilled data scientists helping their clients implement data science solutions effectively and efficiently.

In this episode, I talk to one such data scientist: Naz Levent. Naz has been with Amazon for more than two years and has been part of some exciting projects in fashion, energy and entertainment industries.
