Job ID: 2953025 | Amazon Development Centre (London) Limited

Are you interested in shaping the future of movies and television? Do you want to define the next generation of how and what Amazon customers are watching? Prime Video is one of the world’s leading digital video services, and we’re just getting started changing the way millions of people around the world enjoy content. Now available in more than 200 countries and territories, Prime Video offers customers the broadest selection of any on-demand video service, including our critically-acclaimed Amazon Originals Series such as The Boys, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, The Underground Railroad; UK-produced hit Amazon Original series like Good Omens, The Grand Tour, All or Nothing and Premier League football.

Amazon Studios is the movies and television development and production arm of Amazon. It is our role to produce original content and license studio programs worldwide in exclusive service of Amazon’s Prime Video customers. We need your passion, innovative ideas, and creativity to help take us to new heights.

Do you like inventing, growing and learning from world-class engineers and scientists? If so, we want to hear from you! This a hybrid applied science and engineering team that is developing bleeding edge AI solutions to enhance efficiency, elevate creativity, and ultimately redefine industry standards, ensuring that every decision is accelerated by intelligence and foresight. We need your passion, innovative ideas, and creativity to help take us to new heights.

The solutions we're building are demanding. Collaborating with teams across Amazon and world leading universities we create novel algorithms to automate workflows and innovate on behalf of our studios customers. This requires the use of the latest technologies across foundational models, transformer based architectures, image processing, image analysis, computer vision and machine learning. We need to optimise those algorithms to run accurately and efficiently. The scope of our charter means we're also utilising techniques such as contextual understanding and correction, to ensure the highest levels of video quality for our customers. The range of problems we have to solve in our space, and the enormous potential to positively impact Amazon Studios' ability to scale, provides a breath of opportunities for MLEs to grow and develop their skills.

Key job responsibilities

You will be part of a team of applied scientists and software development engineers responsible for research, design, development and deployment of algorithms into production pipelines. As a technologist, you will also contribute to publications of original work in top-tier conferences in Computer Vision and Machine Learning. You will be expected to deal with ambiguity! We're looking for someone with outstanding analytical abilities and someone comfortable working with cross-functional teams and systems. You must be a self-starter and be able to learn on the go.

About the team

The team is based in Amazon's engineering centre in London and consists of engineers with a variety of backgrounds, from seasoned Amazonian to newly hired; a mix of applied scientists, AWS experts and generalists, but all of us are learning and growing. We work closely with other Prime Video engineering and science teams, including teams based on the US west coast as well as in London.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

  • Experience contributing to the architecture and design (architecture, design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and current systems
  • Experience in professional, non-internship software development
  • Experience programming with at least one modern language such as Java, C++, or C# including object-oriented design
  • Experience in one or more of the following: machine learning, multimodal models, computer vision, natural language processing and audio/signal processing.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • Experience with full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations

Neurodiversity in Machine Learning Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

Machine learning is about more than just models & metrics. It’s about spotting patterns others miss, asking better questions, challenging assumptions & building systems that work reliably in the real world. That makes it a natural home for many neurodivergent people. If you live with ADHD, autism or dyslexia, you may have been told your brain is “too distracted”, “too literal” or “too disorganised” for a technical career. In reality, many of the traits that can make school or traditional offices hard are exactly the traits that make for excellent ML engineers, applied scientists & MLOps specialists. This guide is written for neurodivergent ML job seekers in the UK. We’ll explore: What neurodiversity means in a machine learning context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map to ML roles Practical workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law How to talk about neurodivergence in applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of where you might thrive in ML – & how to turn “different thinking” into a genuine career advantage.

Machine Learning Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the machine learning jobs market in the UK is going through another big shift. Foundation models and generative AI are everywhere, companies are under pressure to show real ROI from AI, and cloud costs are being scrutinised like never before. Some organisations are slowing hiring or merging teams. Others are doubling down on machine learning, MLOps and AI platform engineering to stay competitive. The end result? Fewer fluffy “AI” roles, more focused machine learning roles with clear ownership and expectations. Whether you are a machine learning job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter trying to build ML teams, understanding the key machine learning hiring trends for 2026 will help you stay ahead.

Machine Learning Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK machine learning hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise shipped ML/LLM features, robust evaluation, observability, safety/governance, cost control and measurable business impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for ML engineers, applied scientists, LLM application engineers, ML platform/MLOps engineers and AI product managers. Who this is for: ML engineers, applied ML/LLM engineers, LLM/retrieval engineers, ML platform/MLOps/SRE, data scientists transitioning to production ML, AI product managers & tech‑lead candidates targeting roles in the UK.
