    Amazon Ads Brand Safety & Suitability protects advertisers from exposure to unsafe, unsuitable, or policy-violating content across web, mobile app, CTV, and audio advertising inventory. Our mission is to ensure that every ad impression delivered through Amazon's demand-side platform appears adjacent to content that meets advertiser trust expectations while giving brands granular controls to define suitability on their own terms. We operate at the intersection of advertiser trust, publisher quality, and supply integrity. AI is fundamentally changing the content landscape. Content is now generated at unprecedented scale — faster, cheaper, and increasingly sophisticated. Low-quality, deceptive, AI-generated, and synthetic content evolves in real time, constantly adapting to evade detection. The volume and velocity of new content entering the advertising system has outpaced traditional classification approaches. We are looking for an Applied Scientist to work on the next generation of AI-powered Brand Safety and Content Classification systems designed to protect advertisers and elevate supply quality at internet scale. This is not a traditional classification problem. You will build systems that make millisecond-level decisions across billions of content signals while continuously adapting to emerging content risks driven by generative AI. You will own the science strategy for LLM-powered classification and semantic understanding, real-time multimodal content evaluation, adversarial ML and adaptive model resilience, proactive risk intelligence and content risk hunting, AI-generated and synthetic content detection, and large-scale abusive content system identification and disruption. You will define how modern AI separates high-quality advertising inventory from unsafe, unsuitable, and policy-violating content — across web, mobile app, CTV, and audio surfaces. What Makes This Role Unique Generative AI has dramatically lowered the cost of producing deceptive, policy-evasive content, and the adversary evolves daily. Your detection systems must reason contextually, adapt rapidly, and generalize beyond previously seen content risk patterns. Static models fail here; you will build living systems that learn and respond in real time. You will do this at internet scale, developing low-latency ML and LLM-powered systems evaluating content safety, brand suitability, misinformation risk, and emerging content risk vectors across massive real-time traffic streams, making billions of decisions per day with single-digit millisecond latency constraints. This role sits at the intersection of frontier AI research and large-scale production engineering, combining deep science, system-wide impact, and business-critical outcomes. The models your team ships directly influence billions of dollars in advertising spend and the trust of the world's largest brands in Amazon DSP. The Science Problems Are Genuinely Hard You will tackle challenges including detecting sophisticated AI-generated and synthetic content, understanding nuanced contextual brand risk, identifying coordinated MFA space before they scale, balancing precision, recall, latency, explainability, and fairness, designing adaptive models resilient to adversarial evolution, and leveraging LLMs for semantic understanding in real-time, latency-constrained environments. Why This Matters Few roles offer the opportunity to work at the intersection of frontier AI, internet-scale production systems, adversarial environments, and business-critical impact — while tackling open-ended scientific challenges with real-world societal relevance. As AI reshapes the internet, the systems your team builds will define what trustworthy, high-quality digital systems look like for the next decade. Key job responsibilities - Own the science strategy for AI-powered brand safety classification. - Build LLM-powered content classification systems making billions of decisions/day at single-digit millisecond latency - Develop multimodal evaluation pipelines reasoning across text, images, audio, and video in real time - Design adaptive ML systems resilient to adversarial evolution, semantic understanding for nuanced contextual brand risk. - Define measurement frameworks and drive continuous improvement - Translate research into production — own the path from prototype to deployed model - Publish at peer-reviewed venues; contribute to the scientific community in adversarial ML, NLP, and content safety - Collaborate with software engineering teams to integrate successful experiments into large-scale, highly complex Amazon production systems.

    What happens when you give AI the ability to remember? Not cached responses — real structured memory that compounds over time and transfers across contexts. We're building the science behind this, and we need researchers who want to own the problem end-to-end. This is a founding role on a new team. You won't inherit models or maintain someone else's pipeline. You'll define the research direction, run experiments at scale, and ship what works directly to production. Key job responsibilities As an Applied Scientist in our team, you will be responsible for the research, design, and development of new AI technologies for knowledge acquisition and retrieval. You will adopt or invent new machine learning and analytical techniques in the realm of information retrieval, knowledge representation, and large language models. Specific responsibilities include: 1. Design and implement novel approaches to knowledge extraction from heterogeneous, unstructured data sources at organizational scale. 2. Build retrieval systems that match intent to relevant knowledge across domains — solving the "right memory at the right time" problem. 3. Own the quality of memory generation: what to capture, how to structure it, when to surface it, and when to let it decay. 4. Run large-scale experiments using Amazon's compute infrastructure and massive real-world datasets. 5. Develop evaluation frameworks for a system where "quality" means something new — right knowledge, right context, right confidence level. 6. Collaborate with engineers to move from research prototype to production system in weeks, not quarters. 7. Invent new approaches to temporal knowledge management — how memories age, conflict, and compound over time. 8. Publish and patent novel approaches to knowledge acquisition and retrieval at top-tier venues. A day in the life You will solve real-world problems by getting and analyzing large amounts of data, generate insights and opportunities, execute experiments, and develop statistical and ML models. The team is driven by business needs, which requires collaboration with other Scientists, Engineers, and Product Managers across the organization. You get to influence stakeholders with clear communication skills. You innovate on behalf of the customer and strategically build features. You will mentor junior members and help them grow. About the team We're a new team within Personalization, focused on a different kind of recommendation: not "what product should this customer see" but "what knowledge should this AI use right now." Same scale, same rigor, entirely new problem space. The science is at the intersection of information retrieval, knowledge representation, and LLM reasoning — and the right approach hasn't been established yet. The team values innovation and offers a safe place to try, fail, and learn while fostering a culture of continuous improvement. Everyone is a leader and owner for everything we do as a team. We offer creative space with an entrepreneurial work environment focusing on customer obsession.
