Principal Applied Scientist, Prime Video Global App Experience
Job ID: 2646885 | Amazon.com Services LLCAt Prime Video we are inventing a customer-centric future that offers more choice and flexibility than traditional Cable, Satellite television and other streaming providers. You can watch video content such as Prime Originals (Fallout, The Boys, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel), movies, TV shows, Live sports (Thursday Night Football, English Premier League), local programming and hundreds of add-on subscriptions such as HBO max and Paramount+, anytime anywhere. All on your terms instead of having to pay for an expensive one-size-fits-all bundled package or be locked into long term contracts.
The Global App Experience organization operates at a global scale and is a critical part of Prime Video’s flywheel. We own Prime Video's “last mile” customer experience including all the client apps (Android, iOS, Web, Living Room Smart TVs, set top boxes, Windows10, Mac OSX, gaming consoles) that enable customers in more than 200 countries and territories to find, discover and stream Prime Video content. We also own tier-1 services that act as aggregators and orchestrators between all of Prime Video's clients and Amazon's large backend service graph, providing authoritative APIs that reduce the complexity, cost and time to develop and launch features to our customers. Our client apps are the gateway to the Prime Video experience, enabling customers to quickly find something to watch at which point the app fades in the background and the customer is immersed in the storytelling.
If you are passionate about film, sport or TV and you’re looking for a role where you can maximize your impact as a world class Principal Applied Scientist then come help us achieve our mission of building the most customer-centric, immersive and visually-rich video streaming experience on any device.
Key job responsibilitiesAs a Principal Applied Scientist in the Prime Video Global App Experience organization you will have deep subject matter expertise in applied machine learning. You will work with multiple teams of scientists, engineers and product managers to translate business and functional requirements into concrete deliverables. The field of Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning is experiencing unprecedented innovation and while it is important to know how recent advancements, such as GenAI, can be applied to develop new approaches to improve customer, developer and business outcomes, you'll work backwards from the desired outcomes to determine which ML technique is best applicable (traditional ML, GenAI, etc). Problem spaces you will be working on include: improving the customer experience in the PV apps, reducing the cost/effort/time to detect defects in the customer experience, applying ML to all aspects of the software development process to allow us to develop and release features faster and improving availability, app fluidity and latency. You will also work with external academic partners to support our in-house talent with direct access to cutting edge research and mentoring.
