Science team and lead our multi-year voice of seller Machine Learning
projects. This hands-on, pivotal role will take research to production,
leveraging NLP, sentiment analysis, LLMs, RAGs, and causal modeling. The
job location could be in Seattle, San Diego, or Arlington, in a hybrid work
from home and office setting.

In this position, you'll collaborate closely with senior leadership to
identify high-impact opportunities based on diverse user feedback and
develop novel ML approaches to address them. This includes designing and
deploying sophisticated NLP models, building scalable data pipelines, and
integrating cutting-edge ML-based solutions to directly support Amazon's
vast network of selling partners.

Key responsibilities:

   metrics, and deliver impactful ML solutions
   - Extract insights from advanced techniques like sentiment analysis,
   named entity recognition, and time series analysis to inform product
   enhancements
   - Continuously research and evaluate new ML/NLP approaches to enhance
   current solutions
   - Work closely with data/software engineers to seamlessly integrate
   successful models into production systems
