We are looking for an Applied Scientist to join our team that is building revolutionary enterprise applications leveraging machine learning, generative AI, and agentic AI to help millions of companies worldwide manage their day-to-day supply chain operations. Our mission is to accelerate our customers' businesses through intuitive, differentiated technology solutions that solve enduring supply chain challenges. We blend strategic vision with curiosity and Amazon's real-world operational experience to build opinionated, turnkey solutions that make the 'buy versus build' decision a no-brainer for our customers.

As an Applied Scientist, you will design and develop state-of-the‑art machine learning models and algorithms that power intelligent supply chain applications at global scale. You will work at the intersection of research and real‑world product impact—translating scientific breakthroughs into production systems that serve millions of customers. We operate like a startup within AWS, offering you the opportunity to tackle unprecedented challenges while working with the latest technologies in deep learning, large language models, and optimization.

If you are passionate about pushing the boundaries of applied science, thrive in ambiguous problem spaces, and want to shape the future of supply chain intelligence while having the backing of AWS's extensive resources, we want to hear from you.

• Design, develop, and deploy machine learning models for demand forecasting, inventory optimization, anomaly detection, and supply chain decision-making, with guidance from senior scientists on novel problem spaces.
• Contribute to GenAI and Agentic AI solutions that automate supply chain workflows; implement model components, pipelines, and evaluation harnesses.
• Formulate well‑scoped business problems as ML problems; define data requirements, model architectures, evaluation metrics, and experimentation plans.
• Drive applied science projects end-to-end — from prototyping through offline evaluation, A/B testing, and production deployment — with increasing autonomy.
• Publish research in top-tier conferences (NeurIPS, ICML, KDD, AAAI) and contribute to patent filings.
• Raise the technical bar through code reviews, design feedback, and knowledge‑sharing sessions.
• Collaborate with engineering, product, and business stakeholders to translate scientific capabilities into customer‑facing features; communicate results to technical and non‑technical audiences.
• Stay current with state‑of-the‑art AI/ML research; identify and propose opportunities to apply emerging techniques to existing problems.
• Follow and contribute to best practices for experimentation, model validation, and responsible AI development.
