The Applied Science - People Manager will build and lead a team focused on advancing Amazon Nova, our state-of-the-art foundation model. They will bridge research with real-world impact, ensuring our agents evolve from today’s capabilities to solve reasoning, planning, and world modeling in both virtual and physical environments.

About the team
Our lab is a small, talent-dense team with the resources and scale of Amazon. Each team in the lab has the autonomy to move fast and the long-term commitment to pursue high-risk, high-payoff research. We’re entering an exciting new era where agents can redefine what AI makes possible. We’d love for you to join our lab and build it from the ground up!
