[OpenNash Jobs](https://jobs.opennash.com/) / [Amazon](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/) / Applied Scientist III, Foundation AI Assets (FAI)

## Job description

The Foundational AI Assets (FAI) team is looking for a passionate, talented, and inventive Senior Applied Scientist with a strong deep learning background, to build industry-leading Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) technology with Large Language Models (LLMs).

### Key job responsibilities

- Design and implement novel machine learning and deep learning models to address scientifically complex problems, taking solutions from research through production deployment while maintaining high standards for code quality and system scalability.

- Drive the scientific agenda for your team by identifying new opportunities, proposing research initiatives, and securing alignment with technical leadership on strategic priorities.

- Evaluate and improve model performance using rigorous experimental methodologies, applying techniques such as feature engineering, hyperparameter optimization, and advanced neural network architectures (e.g., Transformers, CNNs) built with frameworks like PyTorch or TensorFlow.

- Mentor and coach scientists and engineers across the organization, conduct thorough code and design reviews, and contribute to the professional growth of your peers while raising the technical bar for the team.

- Collaborate cross-functionally with engineering, product, and science partners to translate ambiguous business problems into well-defined scientific approaches, balancing short-term customer needs with long-term technical vision.

### A day in the life

You might start your morning reviewing experiment results and refining a model architecture before joining a design review where you provide guidance on a colleague's approach to a new problem. After lunch, you dive into writing production-quality code for a critical component of your system, then shift to drafting a scientific document that outlines your team's next research direction. Throughout, you engage with engineers and scientists across teams, sharing your expertise and learning from theirs.

### About the team

The FAI team has the mission to push the envelope in GenAI with LLMs, in order to provide the best-possible experience for our customers.
