Job Description
Join us in a historic endeavor to make Multimodal AI accessible to the world with breakthrough research! The Multimodal AI team has a world-leading team of researchers and academics. We develop the algorithms and models that power AWS AI services such as Bedrock Data Automation, Transcribe, Textract and Rekognition.
We are looking for Principal Scientists to join us and make the AI revolution happen through innovative research inspired by customer needs. A Principal Scientist in AWS AI Labs is a hands-on contributor, who identifies and shapes directions for forward-looking research and develop innovative solutions to hard, previously unsolved customer problems. You will partner with senior managers and Directors and guide the research of individual scientists. You will work closely with engineering teams to define the architectures and solutions that transform multimodal AI research in to services operating at AWS scale. You are expected to lead new areas of research and publish your research results at peer reviewed conferences and workshops.
AWS, the world-leading provider of cloud services, has fostered the creation and growth of countless new businesses, and is a positive force for good. Our customers bring problems which will give scientists endless opportunities to see their research have a positive and immediate impact in the world. You will have the opportunity to partner with technology and business teams to solve real-world problems, have access to virtually endless data and computational resources, and to world-class engineers and developers that can help bring your ideas into the world.
Our research themes include, but are not limited to: multimodal understanding of documents/video/audio, post-training of multimodal FMs including supervised fine tuning and RL, automated annotations, in-context learning and context compression, model distillation and optimization.
We are currently located in the US (Seattle and Bay Area) and Israel (Haifa and Tel Aviv). Additional locations include New York City.
