At Amazon Selection and Catalog Systems (ASCS), our mission is to power the online buying experience for customers worldwide so they can find, discover, and buy any product they want. We innovate on behalf of our customers to ensure uniqueness and consistency of product identity and to infer relationships between products in Amazon Catalog to drive the selection gateway for the search and browse experiences on the website. We're solving a fundamental AI challenge: establishing product identity and relationships at unprecedented scale. Using Generative AI, Visual Language Models (VLMs), and multimodal reasoning, we determine what makes each product unique and how products relate to one another across Amazon's catalog. The scale is staggering: billions of products, petabytes of multimodal data, millions of sellers, dozens of languages, and infinite product diversity—from electronics to groceries to digital content. The research challenges are immense. GenAI and VLMs hold transformative promise for catalog understanding, but we operate where traditional methods fail: ambiguous problem spaces, incomplete and noisy data, inherent uncertainty, reasoning across both images and textual data, and explaining decisions at scale. Establishing product identities and groupings requires sophisticated models that reason across text, images, and structured data—while maintaining accuracy and trust for high-stakes business decisions affecting millions of customers daily. Amazon's Item and Relationship Platform group is looking for an innovative and customer-focused applied scientist to help us make the world's best product catalog even better. In this role, you will partner with technology and business leaders to build new state-of-the-art algorithms, models, and services to infer product-to-product relationships that matter to our customers. You will pioneer advanced GenAI solutions that power next-generation agentic shopping experiences, working in a collaborative environment where you can experiment with massive data from the world's largest product catalog, tackle problems at the frontier of AI research, rapidly implement and deploy your algorithmic ideas at scale, across millions of customers. Key job responsibilities Key job responsibilities include: * Formulate open research problems at the intersection of GenAI, multimodal reasoning, and large-scale information retrieval—defining the scientific questions that transform ambiguous, real-world catalog challenges into publishable, high-impact research * Push the boundaries of VLMs, foundation models, and agentic architectures by designing novel approaches to product identity, relationship inference, and catalog understanding—where the problem complexity (billions of products, multimodal signals, inherent ambiguity) demands methods that don't yet exist * Advance the science of efficient model deployment—developing distillation, compression, and LLM/VLM serving optimization strategies that preserve frontier-level multimodal reasoning in compact, production-grade architectures while dramatically reducing latency, cost, and infrastructure footprint at billion-product scale * Make frontier models reliable—advancing uncertainty calibration, confidence estimation, and interpretability methods so that frontier-scale GenAI systems can be trusted for autonomous catalog decisions impacting millions of customers daily * Own the full research lifecycle from problem formulation through production deployment—designing rigorous experiments over petabytes of multimodal data, iterating on ideas rapidly, and seeing your research directly improve the shopping experience for hundreds of millions of customers * Shape the team's research vision by defining technical roadmaps that balance foundational scientific inquiry with measurable product impact * Mentor scientists and engineers on advanced ML techniques, experimental design, and scientific rigor—building deep organizational capability in GenAI and multimodal AI * Represent the team in the broader science community—publishing findings, delivering tech talks, and staying at the forefront of GenAI, VLM, and agentic system research

Every day, hundreds of thousands of Amazon associates show up to fulfill the promise we make to our customers. Behind the workforce decisions that support them — staffing, retention, scheduling, development — there should be science that doesn't just describe what happened, but explains why it happened and predicts what comes next. That's the work we do. PXT Central Science (PXTCS) is Amazon's internal research organization dedicated to bringing scientific rigor to people and workforce decisions at global scale. Our team sits within the part of PXTCS that focuses on Amazon's Tier 1 hourly populations — the associates at the heart of Amazon's operations. We are a multidisciplinary group of 15 economists, data scientists, data engineers, and research scientists united by a single mission: to transform complex operational challenges into actionable insights through rigorous causal analysis and predictive modeling that empowers data-driven workforce decisions. We are building something new — causal predictive models that go beyond traditional forecasting. Our models don't just tell leaders what will happen; they reveal why it will happen and what levers they can pull to change the outcome. This is the frontier where causal inference meets modern machine learning, and we need a scientist who can help us push it forward. As a Senior Applied Scientist on this team, you will be the connective tissue between innovative research and real-world impact. You will work shoulder-to-shoulder with economists who deeply understand the causal mechanisms driving workforce dynamics and data scientists who know the operational landscape — and you will bring the technical creativity to expand what's possible. That means writing production-quality code that our partner engineering teams can implement into decision-making tools. It means exploring novel feature spaces — large language models, computer vision, and other emerging techniques — to unlock signal that traditional approaches miss. And it means doing all of this with the scientific rigor that causal claims demand. This role is built for someone who is entrepreneurial and energized by ambiguity — someone who sees a prototype model and immediately starts thinking about how to make it robust, scalable, and impactful. You will not just advance your own work; you will elevate the scientists around you. We are looking for a strong technical individual contributor who is passionate about developing peers, raising the bar across disciplines, and who sees a future path into a science manager position. If you want to do science that directly shapes how Amazon supports its workforce — not in theory, but in production systems that leaders use to make better decisions every day — we'd love to talk. Key job responsibilities Design and build causal predictive models that move beyond correlation — developing systems that forecast workforce outcomes and identify the actionable drivers behind them, enabling leaders to intervene before problems materialize Pioneer novel feature engineering by bringing creative approaches from LLMs, computer vision, and other emerging techniques into the causal modeling pipeline, unlocking signal that traditional econometric and tabular methods miss Write production-quality science code that your partner engineering team can implement directly into operational decision-making tools — your work must be clean, well-documented, and built to scale Bridge disciplines by translating between economists, data scientists, and engineers — synthesizing causal rigor with ML innovation to produce models that are both scientifically defensible and operationally useful Design and execute experiments to validate causal claims and model performance, establishing evaluation standards that the team and stakeholders trust Develop and elevate peers across the team — mentoring scientists in adjacent disciplines, sharing technical knowledge, and raising the collective bar on modeling and engineering practices Present findings to senior leadership, distilling complex causal and predictive insights into clear recommendations that drive workforce strategy for Amazon's Tier 1 hourly populations. About the team Amazon’s People Experience and Technology Central Science (PXTCS) team uses economics, behavioral science, statistics, machine learning, applied science, and Generative AI to proactively identify mechanisms and process improvements which simultaneously improve Amazon and the lives, well-being, and the value of work to Amazonians. We are an interdisciplinary team, which combines the talents of science, engineering, and UX to develop and deliver solutions that measurably achieve this goal.
