Sr. Manager, Applied Science, Sponsored Products and Brands

Job ID : 3120805 | Amazon.com Services LLC

The Sponsored Products and Brands (SPB) team at Amazon Ads is reimagining the advertising landscape through generative AI, revolutionizing how millions of customers discover products and engage with brands on Amazon and beyond. We are at the forefront of redefining advertising experiences—bridging human creativity with artificial intelligence to transform every aspect of the advertising lifecycle, from ad creation and optimization to performance measurement and customer insights.

We are a passionate group of innovators dedicated to developing responsible and intelligent AI technologies that balance advertiser needs, enhance the shopping experience, and strengthen the Amazon marketplace. If you are energized by solving complex challenges and pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with AI, join us in shaping the future of advertising.

Key job responsibilities

  • Lead a cross‑functional team of Applied Scientists, Machine Learning Engineers, and Software Development Engineers.
  • Define and deliver the science and engineering roadmap for shopping session understanding, translating business goals into agentic strategies and driving integration of Session Agent capabilities into advertising applications.
  • Hire and develop top talent, providing technical direction and career growth guidance to scientists and engineers within and across organizations.
  • Stay current on research advances, industry trends, and system architectures relevant to agentic AI and session understanding for SPB’s advertising business.

About the team

The Ad Response Prediction (ARP) team within Sponsored Products and Brands (SPB) powers personalized shopping experiences for SPB ads across placements, pages, and devices worldwide. We build deep learning (DL) and generative AI (GenAI) solutions to predict shopper responses and derive session understanding, enabling optimization across every stage of the ad serving process—from sourcing and bidding to widget discovery and auctions.

We are seeking a Senior Applied Science Manager with a strong background in machine learning and advertising to advance shopping session understanding and integrate it into Amazon’s advertising systems. The ideal candidate has experience leading both scientists and engineers and is passionate about applying advanced GenAI technologies to transform the advertising experience.

Basic Qualifications

  • M.S. in Computer Science, Information Retrieval, Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, Statistics, Mathematics, or related discipline.
  • Experience managing a team of applied scientists and engineers as a tech lead or manager for at least 3 years.
  • Experience building large‑scale machine learning and AI solutions at Internet scale for at least 3 years.
  • Preferred Qualifications

  • The ability to communicate complex technical concepts and solutions to all levels of the organization.
  • Experience in computational advertising.
  • Amazon is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of protected veteran status, disability, or other legally protected status.
