We’re working to improve shopping on Amazon using the capabilities of large language models (LLM), and are searching for pioneers who are passionate about technology, innovation, and customer experience, and are ready to make a lasting impact on the industry. You'll be working with talented scientists and engineers to innovate on behalf of our customers. If you're fired up about being part of a dynamic, driven team, then this is your moment to join us on this exciting journey! Key job responsibilities Key job responsibilities In this role you will leverage both your engineering and machine learning background to help develop generative AI for shopping. On a day-to-day basis, you will: - Design and implementation of a stable and efficient training system for model training and reinforcement learning that scale to various of model sizes and architecture. - Collaborate with other talented applied scientists and engineers to improve training efficiency and reliability that accelerates innovation. - Design and implement scalable data infrastructure: that handle Amazon-scale data ingestion, processing, and delivery across different training and evaluation stages; - Quickly learn and adopt state-of-the-art technologies and algorithms in the field of Generative AI. A day in the life On any given day, you may work on: Design and build end-to-end RL post-training pipelines (rollout → reward → optimization) at cluster scale Improve RL training stability (PPO / GRPO / RLOO) by monitoring and tuning key metrics such as reward, KL divergence, and policy stability Optimize RL post-training efficiency (GPU utilization, batching, sequence packing, async rollouts) Partner with research scientists to translate new RL algorithms into scalable, production-ready systems Profile and eliminate bottlenecks across compute, networking, and storage Build observability systems for training dynamics, system health, and experiment tracking Collaborate cross-functionally to run experiments, iterat
