Full Job Description
The future of ecommerce product data is being rewritten with Generative AI-and Amazon's Catalog Systems are at the center of it. Our team is re-envisioning how Amazon builds, enriches, and evaluates product data at scale. We're using foundation models, multimodal LLMs, and autonomous evaluation systems to transform the way customers discover, compare, and purchase products.

You will work closely with applied scientists, software development managers, engineers, and product managers to define how models are selected and deployed for various enrichment tasks. You will establish robust technical requirements around latency, performance, and quality metrics, create implementation plans that span multiple systems, and ensure seamless integration of new data sources into Amazon Ads' AI training pipelines.
