Data Scientist II, Regulatory Intelligence, Safety, and Compliance (RISC)
We are seeking an exceptional Data Scientist to join a team of experts in the field of machine learning, and work together to tackle challenging problems across diverse compliance domains. We leverage multi-modal and large-language-models (LLMs) to detect illegal and unsafe products across the Amazon catalog. We work on machine learning problems for multi-modal classification, intent detection, information retrieval, anomaly and fraud detection, and generative AI.
This is an exciting and challenging position to deliver scientific innovations into production systems at Amazon-scale to make immediate, meaningful customer impacts while also pursuing ambitious, long-term research. You will work in a highly collaborative environment where you can analyze and process large amounts of image, text and tabular data. You will work on hard science problems that have not been solved before, conduct rapid prototyping to validate your hypothesis, and deploy your algorithmic ideas at scale. There will be something new to learn every day as we work in an environment with rapidly evolving regulations and adversarial actors looking to outwit your best ideas.
Key job responsibilities
• Explore and evaluate state-of-the-art algorithms and approaches in multi-modal classification, large language models (LLMs), intent detection, information retrieval, anomaly and fraud detection, and generative AI
• Translate product and CX requirements into measurable science problems and metrics.
• Collaborate with product and tech partners and customers to validate hypothesis, drive adoption, and increase business impact
