Applied Scientist Ii, on Road Experience

Amazon Amazon · Big Tech · IN, KA, Bengaluru · Applied Science

Applied Scientist II role focused on building machine learning models and algorithms for the Last Mile Driver Experience team at Amazon. The role involves working with data streams like video and telematics, and applying ML in areas such as mapping, pattern detection, and computer vision to improve delivery operations. The scientist will drive designs from ideation to production, focusing on building v1 products and delivering results in an ambiguous environment.

What you'd actually do

  1. building machine learning models and algorithms in areas including mapping and location, pattern detection in sensor data, and computer vision
  2. work with your engineering and product management peers to drive designs from ideation through development and into production
  3. bring your experience of research for similar products and solutions, preferably in consumer or industrial verticals
  4. work efficiently to build the right things with limited guidance, raising the bar to create an amazing experience for our customers
