Sr. Applied Scientist, Decision Science and Technology (DST)
Bellevue, Washington
Our mission is to improve the reliability of equipment (conveyance, motors, robotics), and optimize the maintenance and inventory management policies to support sites across our entire distribution network. We build products and systems to detect and prevent equipment downtime using a diverse set of algorithms, survival analysis, and large vision models. We screen over 150 million events every day, and process this data to create real time alerting systems. We are still day 1 and have an exciting roadmap to build computer vision models to automate defect detection and action material handling equipment, deploy scalable causal inference solutions to measure the impact of events, and optimize the reliability of miles of conveyance per site to help scale Amazon for years to come.
As a Sr. Applied Scientist, you will design, develop, and maintain scalable, Deep Learning models with automated training, validation, monitoring and reporting. You will work closely with other scientists and engineers to architect and develop new learning algorithms and prediction techniques. You will collaborate with product managers and engineering teams to design and implement scientific solutions for Amazon problems. Provide technical and scientific guidance to your team members. Contribute to the research community, by working with other scientists across Amazon and publish papers at peer reviewed journals and conferences.
Key job responsibilities
• \tDrive software engineering best practice while designing the world's foremost distributed and scalable systems.
