Amazon • Seattle, WA • 1h ago

Description

The Next Generation Developer Experience (NGDE) Science team is looking for an Applied Scientist who is passionate about building services and tools for developers that leverage artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML).

If you are excited about working in cloud computing and building new AWS services, then we'd love to talk to you.

Key job responsibilities

As an Applied Scientist, you are recognized for your expertise, advise team members on a range of machine learning topics, and work closely with software engineers to drive the delivery of end-to-end modeling solutions.

Work/Life Balance

We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why we strive for flexibility as part of our working culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there's nothing we can't achieve in the cloud.
