Senior Applied Scientist, Amazon Robotics R&D
Job ID: 2805184 | Amazon Development Center Germany GmbHThe Amazon Robotics team is seeking an experienced Applied Scientist to join our team. In this role you will apply the latest trends in research to solve real-world problems in robotics and AI. You will collaborate with a team of scientists and engineers building these applications. We holistically design, build, and deliver end-to-end robotic systems. Our team is also responsible for core infrastructure and tools that serve as the backbone of our robotic applications, enabling roboticists, machine learning scientists, software engineers, and hardware engineers to collaborate and deploy systems in the field.Key Job Responsibilities
We have several open positions for candidates with varying levels of experience. We seek candidates who can:Research, design, implement and evaluate novel algorithms for dexterous roboticsWork on end-to-end robotics systems, creating scalable systems for many applicationsCollaborate closely with team members on developing systems from prototyping to production levelCollaborate with teams spread all over the world, in particular Boston and SeattleWork closely with software engineering teams to drive Amazon scale, real-time implementationsBe driven by business goalsWe are looking for applied scientists with expertise in any of the following:
Computer vision (including but not limited to tracking, object recognition, visual SLAM, motion prediction, reconstruction)Machine learning (e.g. reinforcement learning, supervised learning, Bayesian methods, online learning systems, ML for robotics)Control (e.g. impedance and direct force control, dynamics, trajectory control, motion planning, simulation)BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
PhD in engineering, technology, computer science, machine learning, robotics, operations research, statistics, mathematics or equivalent quantitative fieldExperience in patents or publications at top-tier peer-reviewed conferences or journalsExperience programming in Java, C++, Python or related languagePREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
PhD and relevant industry or academic research experience in developing algorithms for robotic computer vision and/or motion planning/control.Experience in one or more relevant technical areas: robotics, computer vision, machine learning, sensors, real-time systems, embedded systems, distributed systems, or simulation.Experience in publishing at major robotics and related conferences (e.g. RSS, NIPS, ICRA, CVPR, CORL, ICCV) or journals (IJRR, IEEE TRO, JMLR).Experience with interdisciplinary developments that involve hardware, software, and algorithm co-design.Expertise building and testing real-time systems.Demonstrated experience incubating and productionizing new technology from idea generation through implementation.Amazon is an equal opportunities employer. We believe passionately that employing a diverse workforce is central to our success. We make recruiting decisions based on your experience and skills. We value your passion to discover, invent, simplify and build. Protecting your privacy and the security of your data is a longstanding top priority for Amazon.
