Job ID: 2808946 | Amazon.com Services LLC
Interested in helping build Prime's content and offer experimentation system to drive huge business impact on millions of customers? Join our team of Scientists and Engineers developing algorithms to adaptively generate and experiment on new content, personalize, and optimize the customer experience with Amazon Prime. This includes identifying who our customers are and providing them with personalized relevant content. As an ML lead, you will partner directly with product owners to intake, build, and directly apply your modeling solutions.
There are numerous scientific and technical challenges you will get to tackle in this role, such as adaptive experimentation, structured multi-armed bandits and its application to various types of experimentation and multi-step optimization leading to reinforcement learning of the customer journey. We employ techniques from supervised learning, multi-armed bandits, optimization, and RL - while this role is focused on leading the space of multi-armed bandit solutions.
As the central science team within Prime, our expertise gets routinely called upon to weigh in on a variety of topics. We also emphasize the need and value of scientific research and have developed a strong publication and patent record (internally/externally) which you will be a part of.
You will also utilize and be exposed to the latest in ML technologies and infrastructure: AWS technologies (EMR/Spark, Redshift, Sagemaker, DynamoDB, S3, ...), various ML algorithms and techniques (Random Forests, Neural Networks, supervised/unsupervised/semi-supervised/reinforcement learning, LLM's), and statistical modeling techniques.
