At Amazon's FinTech organization, we are building AI systems that process hundreds of millions of financial transactions, turn complex documents into actionable intelligence, and power autonomous agents that learn from every customer interaction. We are looking for a Senior Applied Scientist to lead the development of generative AI applications that change how finance teams work, tackling problems at the intersection of large language models, multi-agent systems, and real-world financial operations. Key job responsibilities What You'll Work On - Building AI systems that finance teams trust enough to rely on without manual review, where precision isn't a nice-to-have, it's a compliance requirement - Designing agents that learn from user corrections and get measurably better with every interaction, not just at the next model release - Solving inference at massive scale using tiered model architectures, intelligent routing, and small language models that deliver production-grade accuracy at a fraction of frontier model cost - Developing evaluation frameworks that catch quality regressions before customers do and gate every model change before it ships Who Thrives Here - You're someone who cares as much about shipping as about research. - You've built models that run in production, not just in notebooks. - You're comfortable working across the full stack, from model architecture to deployment to measuring whether the customer's workflow actually changed. - You operate well in cross-functional settings where science, engineering, and business teams inform each other continuously. - You'd rather solve a hard real-world problem than optimize a benchmark. What Makes This Different Your work ships to production and directly changes how thousands of finance professionals operate daily The problems are genuinely hard: financial data is messy, regulated, high-stakes, and operates at a scale where naive LLM approaches break down You'll work across multiple domains — from contract intelligence to cash application to financial data investigation — not a single narrow use case 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.

The Challenge How do you orchestrate a fleet of autonomous drones to deliver packages safely in under an hour, while maximizing every minute of flight time? How do you scale a mission planning system to handle thousands of concurrent deliveries in complex, shifting environments? Our team of scientists, engineers, and aerospace professionals is solving these exact problems. We are looking for an Applied Science Manager to lead the evolution of our Mission Planning and Orchestration System. You will be at the forefront of defining how Prime Air moves from point A to point B with maximum efficiency.

Preferred Qualifications Experience with autonomous systems, UAVs, or large-scale logistics networks. Knowledge of combinatorial optimization and real-time scheduling constraints. A knack for turning ambiguous "blue sky" research into deployed, high-impact features. Export Control License: This position may require a deemed export control license for compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Placement is contingent on Amazon’s ability to apply for and obtain an export control license on your behalf. Key job responsibilities Strategic Technical Leadership & Throughput: Lead the development of path planning and geospatial orchestration models to maximize deliveries per hour, ensuring complex algorithms are production-ready and integrated into the mission system. Team Management & Delivery: Build and scale a world-class science team by mentoring talent and fostering career growth, while maintaining a high bar for operational excellence to deliver mission-critical software on schedule. A day in the life In a typical day, you lead an agile squad through high-velocity sprints, starting with a stand-up to unblock path-planning prototypes and ensure the team is on track for mission-critical delivery milestones. You spend your time bridging the gap between research and reality, reviewing code and design docs to ensurealgorithms for geospatial orchestration are production-ready and optimized for real-world drone throughput. Between deep-dive technical reviews, you focus heavily on people development—conducting 1:1s to mentor scientists and architecting career growth paths—while collaborating with cross-functional leads to ensure your team's innovations seamlessly integrate into the live mission planning system.
