Re-imagining the realms of what’s possible in advertising.
Amazon is re-imagining advertising. Amazon Ads operates at the intersection of eCommerce and advertising and offering a rich array of advertising solutions and audience insights so businesses and brands can create relevant campaigns that produce measurable results.
At Amazon Ads, you can build models that impact millions every day. And we’re passionate about solving real-world problems while using cutting-edge machine learning and artificial intelligence to do this.
For example, our applied science teams leverage a variety of advanced machine learning and cloud computing techniques to power Amazon's advertising offerings. This includes building algorithms and cloud services using clustering, deep neural networks, and other ML approaches to make ads more relevant while respecting privacy. They develop machine learning models to predict ad outcomes and select the optimal ad for each shopper, context, and advertiser objective, leveraging techniques like multi-task learning, bandit/reinforcement learning, counterfactual estimation, and low-latency extreme ML. The teams also utilize Spark, EMR, and Elasticsearch to extract insights from big data and deliver recommendations to advertisers at scale, continuously improving through offline analysis and impact evaluation. Additionally, they apply generative AI models for dynamic creative optimization and video experimentation and automation.
Underpinning these efforts are unique technical challenges, such as operating at unprecedented scale (hundreds of thousands of requests per second with 40ms latency) while respecting privacy and customer trust guarantees, and solving a wide variety of complex computational advertising problems related to traffic quality, viewability, brand safety, and more.
Help us take innovation in advertising to the next level.
Our teams are based in our fast-growing tech hubs in London and Edinburgh. Learn more about Amazon Ads, employee stories and available opportunities here: https://www.amazon.jobs/content/en/teams/advertising/applied-science-machine-learning-research?ref_=a20m_us_car_lp_asml
