Careers

Amazon's Price Perception and Evaluation team is seeking a driven Data Scientist to harness planet scale multi-modal datasets, and navigate a continuously evolving competitor landscape, in order to build and scale an advanced self-learning scientific price estimation and product understanding system, regularly generating fresh customer-relevant prices on billions of Amazon and Third Party Seller products worldwide. The Data Scientist will work closely with other research scientists, applied scientists, and SDEs to design and run experiments, conduct statistical analysis, research new algorithms, and find new ways to improve Seller Pricing to optimize the Customer experience. The Scientist will partner with technology and product leaders to solve business and technology problems using scientific approaches to build new services that surprise and delight our customers. If you are a scientist who wants to work at the frontier of time series research, at a scale no academic lab or startup can match, and see your work deployed to real-world impact — this is the team for you. Key job responsibilities - Design and run rigorous experiments at scale to evaluate and improve foundation model performance across hundreds of millions of products, geographies, and business verticals - Lead the end-to-end lifecycle of evaluation models — from research and experimentation through production launch — including defining success metrics, obtaining stakeholder sign-off, and managing rollout - Conduct online and offline labs to measure the real-world impact of model improvements beyond accuracy, including downstream supply chain, inventory, and financial outcomes - Develop and deploy production-grade statistical models using Python, Scala, SQL, and related tools - Perform large-scale exploratory data analysis to uncover patterns, identify opportunities, and inform model development - Translate complex research findings into clear insights and recommendations for technical and non-technical stakeholders at all levels A day in the life A day in the life No two days look the same, but most will involve some combination of deep technical work, cross-functional collaboration, and scientific thinking at a scale you won't find anywhere else. You might start the morning reviewing the results of an experiment running across hundreds of millions of products — analyzing whether a new foundation model variant is improving generalization on cold-start items, or whether a novel data generation approach is meaningfully shifting forecast quality. You'll dig into the numbers, form a hypothesis, and design the next iteration. Later in the day, you could be in a stakeholder review, walking business and engineering partners through a set of launch metrics — explaining not just forecast accuracy, but the downstream supply chain and financial impact your model is driving. Getting a model to production at Amazon requires rigor: you'll define success criteria, run online and offline labs to validate real-world impact, and build the case for sign-off across technical and business stakeholders. You'll write code — Python, Scala, SQL — to process and analyze data at a scale most scientists never encounter. You'll collaborate closely with scientists, engineers, and business teams, and contribute to research that has a real chance of being published and advancing the field. The work is hard, the problems are unsolved, and the impact is immediate. If you want to do research that ships — this is where you do it.

We are seeking an Applied Scientist to join Compass. In this role, you will develop the core Control Barrier Function (CBF) algorithms that form the mathematical foundation of the Compass safety system. You will ensure they don't just work in theory but perform reliably on real robots under real-world conditions. You will push the boundaries of concepts central to CBFs: computing robust invariant sets, designing hybrid system formulations that handle contact transitions and mode switches, and developing backup-set approaches that leverage learned policies and multiple controllers. A key challenge of this role is bridging the gap between the mathematics of set invariance and the realities of hardware, including sensor noise, model uncertainty, computational budgets, and discrete state transitions. You will ensure that these algorithms are not only provably correct but also implementable within a safety-critical architecture that must be certified by a third-party. You will contribute directly to the next generation of CBF theory and its practical deployment across Amazon's diverse robot fleet. Key job responsibilities • Develop and implement novel CBF algorithms that provide formal safety guarantees while minimizing conservatism to maximize the permissible operating envelope for each robot platform • Compute and refine invariant sets for complex, high-dimensional robotic systems, developing scalable methods that go beyond what existing analytical approaches can handle • Design formulations for hybrid dynamical systems, handling discrete mode transitions (e.g., contact/no-contact, stance/flight phases) with provable safety across switching boundaries • Address the theory-to-practice gap by developing methods that are robust to model uncertainty, sensor noise, actuation delays, and computational latency • Create reduced-order and full-order dynamics models with both white-box and black-box approach • Implement real-time optimization solvers that execute within the tight timing budgets of safety-critical control loops • Develop formal arguments and documentation sufficient to support third-party safety certification of algorithms • Validate algorithms through rigorous simulation and hardware experiments, characterizing failure modes and quantifying safety margins • Contribute to the theoretical foundations of CBFs through publications at top-tier controls and robotics venues • Collaborate with perception, planning, locomotion, and manipulation teams to accommodate the needs of upstream and downstream systems A day in the life Amazon offers a full range of benefits that support you and eligible family members, including domestic partners and their children. Benefits can vary by location, the number of regularly scheduled hours you work, length of employment, and job status such as seasonal or temporary employment. The benefits that generally apply to regular, full-time employees include: 1. Medical, Dental, and Vision Coverage 2. Maternity and Parental Leave Options 3. Paid Time Off (PTO) 4. 401(k) Plan If you are not sure that every qualification on the list above describes you exactly, we'd still love to hear from you! At Amazon, we value people with unique backgrounds, experiences, and skillsets. If you’re passionate about this role and want to make an impact on a global scale, please apply! About the team Work with the inventors of control barrier functions on a novel, universal approach to safe autonomy: one that scales across mobile robots, manipulators, mobile manipulators, and future robot platforms with dynamic stability. You'll push the boundary of safe performance by integrating safety with motion planning, RL, and foundation models, ensuring that safety is never a blocker to robot performance. Your work will underpin robots operating alongside people at Amazon's unprecendented scale.
