    Description


    Amazon is looking for a passionate, talented, and inventive Applied Scientist with a strong machine learning background to help build industry-leading language technology.


    AWS Utility Computing (UC) provides product innovations - from foundational services such as Amazon's Simple Storage Service (S3) and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), to consistently released new product innovations that continue to set AWS's services and features apart in the industry.

    As a member of the UC organization, you'll support the development and management of Compute, Database, Storage, Internet of Things (Iot), Platform, and Productivity Apps services in AWS, including support for customers who require specialized security solutions for their cloud services.

    As part of our AI team in Amazon AWS, you will work alongside internationally recognized experts to develop novel algorithms and modeling techniques to advance the state-of-the-art in human language technology.

    Your work will directly impact millions of our customers in the form of products and services, as well as contributing to the wider research community.

    You will gain hands on experience with Amazon's heterogeneous text and structured data sources, and large-scale computing resources to accelerate advances in language understanding.


    The Science team at AWS Bedrock builds science foundations of Bedrock, which is a fully managed service that makes high-performing foundation models available for use through a unified API.

    We are adamant about continuously learning state-of-the-art NLP/ML/LLM technology and exploring creative ways to delight our customers.

    In our daily job we are exposed to large scale NLP needs and we apply rigorous research methods to respond to them with efficient and scalable innovative solutions.


    At AWS Bedrock, you'll experience the benefits of working in a dynamic, entrepreneurial environment, while leveraging AWS resources, one of the world's leading cloud companies and you'll be able to publish your work in top tier conferences and journals.

    We are building a brand new team to help develop a new NLP service for AWS. You will have the opportunity to conduct novel research and influence the science roadmap and direction of the team. Come join this greenfield opportunity
