Senior Applied Scientist, Worldwide Grocery Stores Technologies
Amazon.com
The WWGST (Worldwide Grocery Stores Tech) teams are seeking a highly motivated Senior Applied Scientist (Level 6) to join our team that is focused on building new technologies for grocery stores. We are a team of applied scientists invent new algorithms (especially artificial intelligence, computer vision and sensor fusion) to improve customer experiences in grocery shopping such as Dash Cart or Self-CheckOut.
The Amazon Dash Cart is a smart shopping cart that uses sensors to keep track of what a shopper has added. Once done, they can bypass the checkout lane and just walk out. The cart comes with convenience features like a store map, a basket that can weigh produce, and product recommendations. Amazon Dash Cart’s are available at Amazon Fresh, Whole Foods. Learn more about the Dash Cart at https://www.amazon.com/b?ie=UTF8&node=21289116011.
Key job responsibilities
As a Senior Applied Scientist, you will help solve a variety of technical challenges and mentor other junior scientists. You will be leader of the applied science team to resolve the hard problems. You will play an active role in translating business and functional requirements into concrete deliverables and build quick prototypes or proofs of concept in partnership with other technology leaders within the team. You will tackle challenging, novel situations every day and given the size of this initiative, you’ll have the opportunity to work with multiple technical teams at Amazon in different locations. You should be comfortable with a degree of ambiguity that’s higher than most projects and relish the idea of solving problems that, frankly, haven’t been solved before - anywhere. Along the way, we guarantee that you’ll learn a ton, have fun and make a positive impact on millions of people.
