Distinguished Scientist, Amazon

The charter of the Amazon Shopping Team is to improve shopping on Amazon using the conversational capabilities of large language models. We are working on an AI-first initiative to further improve the way we do search using large-scale foundation models. These foundation models are also used in downstream applications by various partner teams in Amazon Stores. Our goal is to build large language models (LLMs), which can empower conversational applications and facilitate online shopping. The team is searching for pioneers who are passionate about technology, innovation, and customer experience, and are ready to make a lasting impact on the industry.
