20 Senior Software Development Manager, Core AI Jobs in Seattle, WA
Amazon is Hiring a Senior Software Development Manager, Core AI Near Seattle, WA
DESCRIPTION
Core AI is an interdisciplinary science and engineering team in Amazon's Stores organization with a peak-jumping mission guided by economics: we apply expertise in science and engineering to move from local to global optima in methods, models, and software. We pursue this mission by leveraging frontier science; collaborating with partner teams; and learning from the tools, experience, and perspective of others. We scale by solving problems, first in the small to prove concepts, and then in the large by building scalable solutions. We also help other teams within Amazon scale by hiring and developing the best and embedding them in other business units.
In 2024, we are focused on economics and science in areas related to (1) improving delivery speed and lowering cost-to-serve, (2) seller fees and incentives, and (3) emerging machine learning. We also have some ongoing and highly-leveraged collaborations that help partner teams inside Amazon short-circuit months of R&D or otherwise look around corners.
We are looking for a Senior Software Development Manager to lead our software engineering team. In this role, you will manage a team of engineers with backgrounds in machine learning, distributed systems, and data engineering. The team's responsibilities include developing and maintaining the software and data systems that our economics and machine learning science teams use within Core AI, as well as working with scientists to develop state-of-the-art econometrics, ML, OR, and statistical models, methods, and systems. You will also be responsible for maintaining a high bar of engineering excellence and operational excellence within the team, including familiarity with IaC tools/methods, CI/CD, ML model and data lifecycle/workflow tools, big data systems (e.g., Spark, Ray, etc.).
Graduate education or hands-on experience in formal methods, optimization, causal inference, Bayesian statistics, modern machine learning, or other quantitative scientific fields may be helpful. To be successful in this role, you should be a quick learner and comfortable with a high degree of ambiguity.
