Applied Scientist II, Amazon AI at Work

We are looking for an Applied Scientist who is passionate about revolutionizing how product managers, program managers, and business analysts work with artificial intelligence. You will be part of the Amazon AI at Work (AIW) team building the next generation of AI agents that transform how business professionals operate and reshape the future of hybrid (AI + human) work.

As an Applied Scientist, you are recognized for your expertise, advise team members on a range of machine learning topics, and work closely with software engineers to drive the delivery of end-to-end agentic AI solutions.

You bring perspective and provide context for current technology choices and make recommendations on the right modeling and component design approach to achieve the desired business outcome and user experience.

• Create novel frameworks for automating and enhancing workplace tasks.
• Lead cross-team projects to bring solutions from research to production.
• Drive innovation in business process automation and decision support systems.
