AppliedScientist,WHS

We're looking for an Applied Scientist to develop computer vision and machine learning models that keep Amazon's workforce safe. Your research and models will be deployed across hundreds of operations facilities globally, helping to reduce safety incidents for over 1.5 million people. You'll join a team where science meets real-world impact. You'll design and train models for tasks like activity recognition, anomaly detection, object detection, and risk prediction using video, image, and sensor data from Amazon's operational environments. You'll work closely with software engineers to take your models from experimentation through production deployment at scale. If you're excited about applying advanced ML research to a problem that genuinely improves people's lives, and you thrive in an environment where your work ships to production, not just to a paper, this is the role for you. Key job responsibilities - Design, develop, and deploy computer vision and machine learning models for workplace safety applications (e.g., activity recognition, anomaly detection, pose estimation, object detection) - Develop and iterate on model architectures using deep learning frameworks, running experiments on large-scale video, image, and sensor datasets - Collaborate with software engineers to productionize models - optimizing for inference latency, accuracy, and reliability in edge and cloud environments - Analyze operational data to identify patterns and signals indicating safety risks, and translate findings into actionable model improvements - Stay current with the latest research in computer vision, deep learning, and related fields, and evaluate applicability to safety use cases - Communicate findings and technical approaches clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders through documents, presentations, and design reviews - Contribute to the team's scientific culture through code reviews, knowledge sharing, and mentorship About the team Amazon's Workplace Health & S
