  • Sr. Applied Scientist, Amazon AI at Work

    Amazon Development Center U.S., Inc. 4.7company rating

    Research scientist job in Seattle, WA

    We're at a defining moment in enterprise AI. While most companies are building thin wrappers around foundation models, we're tackling the fundamental challenges that will shape how organizations work with AI over the next decade. We're seeking a Senior Applied Scientist who will lead the technical vision and innovation that will define the future of work at Amazon. You'll be at the forefront of Amazon's AI innovation, working directly with technologies that will power the next generation of business operations, with visibility at the highest levels of AWS and Amazon's leadership team. What we're building doesn't exist yet anywhere-we're creating AI systems that fundamentally transform how enterprises operate. The scientific challenges we face represent genuine gaps in how organizations integrate AI into their operations, and we're approaching them with the resources and scale to build real solutions, not just prototypes. This role has real ambiguity-the productive kind where customer problems are clear but scientific solutions need to be invented. You'll have high autonomy to drive the scientific strategy and technical implementation in an early team. The scale of impact is enormous-you'll be developing scientific innovations that will fundamentally change how Amazon operates and become the foundation for how enterprises worldwide integrate AI into complex knowledge work. But what makes this unique is the timing and technical depth. You'll be solving problems that don't have established solutions, inventing new scientific approaches alongside delivering production-grade systems. If you want to tackle intrinsically hard scientific challenges that don't have obvious solutions, if you want to advance the state of the art in AI, if you want your work to matter at scale-let's talk. Key job responsibilities • Design and architect complex AI agent systems for business and product management workflows at scale • Define and lead research initiatives in human-AI collaboration frameworks across multiple teams • Drive end-to-end delivery of novel AI solutions from inception to production, ensuring system-level technical requirements are met • Lead technical discovery and innovation through rapid experimentation while maintaining high standards • Mentor junior scientists and influence adoption of scientific best practices across teams • Author technical documentation and research papers that advance the field of AI agents We're looking for someone who combines deep technical expertise with strong business acumen and thrives in ambiguous, fast-paced environments. You should be passionate about creating AI solutions that enhance human capabilities while maintaining high standards for responsible AI development. The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in machine learning and distributed systems, with a proven track record of delivering innovative AI solutions into production. A day in the life You take ownership of the long-term scientific vision, product roadmaps, and technologies, defining how they should evolve. You build consensus through thoughtful discussions with stakeholders, engineers, and scientist peers across multiple teams. You bring deep expertise to provide context for current and future technology choices and make strategic recommendations on modeling approaches and system architecture to achieve transformative business outcomes and user experiences. About the team Amazon AI at Work (AIW) is a strategic AWS Applied AI Solutions team pioneering the next generation of AI products, with direct visibility and engagement from senior leadership. Our team brings together top-tier product managers, engineers, and scientists who thrive on turning ambitious AI concepts into services.

  • AI Speech Research Intern

    Centific

    Research scientist job in Redmond, WA

    PhD Research Intern - Speech AI Centific AI Research Fulltime - 40 hours per week Centific AI Research seeks a PhD Research Intern to design and evaluate speech‑first models, with a focus on Spoken Language Models (SLMs) that reason over audio and interact conversationally. You'll move ideas from prototype to practical demos, working with scientists and engineers to deliver measurable impact. Scope of Work End‑to‑end speech dialogue systems (speech‑in/speech‑out) and speech‑aware LLMs. Alignment between speech encoders and text backbones via lightweight adapters. Efficient speech tokenization and temporal compression suitable for long‑form audio. Reliable evaluation across recognition, understanding, and generation tasks-including robustness and safety. Latency‑aware inference for streaming and real‑time user experiences. Example Projects Prototype a conversational SLM using an SSL speech encoder and a compact adapter on an existing LLM; compare against strong baselines. Create a data recipe that blends conversational speech with instruction‑following corpora; run targeted ablations and report findings. Build an evaluation harness that covers ASR/ST/SLU and speech QA, including streaming metrics (latency, stability, endpointing). Ship a minimal demo with streaming inference and logging; document setup, metrics, and reliability checks. Author a crisp internal write‑up: goals, design choices, results, and next steps for productionization. Minimum Qualifications PhD candidate in CS/EE (or related) with research in speech, audio ML, or multimodal LMs. Fluency in Python and PyTorch, with hands‑on GPU training; familiarity with torchaudio or librosa. Working knowledge of modern sequence models (Transformers or SSMs) and training best practices. Depth in at least one area: (a) discrete speech tokens/temporal compression, (b) modality alignment to LLMs via adapters, or (c) post‑training/instruction tuning for speech tasks. Strong experimentation habits: clean code, ablations, reproducibility, and clear reporting. Preferred Qualifications Experience with speech generation (neural codecs/vocoders) or hybrid text+speech decoding. Background in multilingual or code‑switching speech and domain adaptation. Hands‑on work evaluating safety, bias, hallucination, or spoofing risks in speech systems. Distributed training/serving (FSDP/DeepSpeed), and experience with ESPnet, SpeechBrain, or NVIDIA NeMo. Tech Stack PyTorch, CUDA, torchaudio/librosa; experiment tracking (e.g., Weights & Biases). LLM backbones with lightweight adapters; neural audio codecs and vocoders as needed. FastAPI/gRPC for services; ONNX/TensorRT and quantization for efficient inference. What We Offer Competitive stipend and hands-on projects with measurable real-world impact. Mentorship from applied scientists and engineers; opportunities to publish and present. Access to modern GPU infrastructure and a supportive environment for fast, responsible experimentation. Flexible location and schedule options, subject to team needs. Benefits: Comprehensive healthcare, dental, and vision coverage 401k plan Paid time off (PTO) And more!
