Sr. Machine Learning Research Infrastructure Engineer - Amazon Go - Boston MetroWest

* Note: This job is located in Hudson, MA

We are looking for a Sr. Machine Learning Research Infrastructure Engineer to develop solutions that require significant innovation for our Amazon Go team, located in Hudson, MA, including the new Amazon Dash Cart and other confidential projects. We are all currently working remotely due to COVID-19 until the end of June.

Amazon Dash cart allows shoppers to checkout without lines — you just place the items in the cart and the cart will take care of the rest. When you’re done shopping, you leave the store through a designated dash lane. We charge the payment method in your Amazon account as you walk through the dash lane and send you a receipt. Check it out at https://www.amazon.com/b?ie=UTF8&node=21289116011.

Designed and custom-built by Amazonians, our Dash cart uses a variety of technologies including computer vision, sensor fusion, and advanced machine learning. Innovation is part of our DNA! Our goal is to be Earth’s most customer centric company and we are just getting started. We need people who want to join an ambitious program that continues to push the state of the art in computer vision, machine learning and algorithms.

As a Senior Machine Learning Research Infrastructure Engineer, you will help solve a variety of technical challenges and mentor other engineers. You will play an active role in designing and building research infrastructures and pipelines for real-time machine learning and computer vision applications, and build quick prototypes or proofs of concept in partnership with other technology leaders within the team. You will help invent new features, design, develop and deploy reliable distributed services. You will work with a variety of core languages and technologies.

You will tackle challenging situations every day and you’ll have the opportunity to work with multiple technical teams at Amazon. You should be comfortable with a degree of ambiguity that’s higher than most projects and relish the idea of solving problems. Along the way, we guarantee that you’ll learn a ton, have fun and make a positive impact on many customers
