Principal, Applied Scientist, AWS Applied AI Solutions

Job description

Join us if you're excited about pushing the boundaries of what's possible in physical AI, working with world-class scientists and engineers, and seeing your innovations deployed at unprecedented scale. We are seeking an exceptional Principal Applied Scientist to drive technical innovation in visual reasoning foundation models. You will be a technical leader who sets the research direction, architects novel solutions, and delivers breakthrough results that advance the state of the art while solving real-world business problems. You will lead the efforts of building a next-generation visual reasoning engine powered by frontier Large Video Models (LVMs). Your mission is to build a system that rivals human understanding of the physical world—moving far beyond the static perception of detection and tracking into the realm of deep spatial-temporal reasoning. This is not a passive computer vision tool; it is an agentic collaborator capable of interpreting natural language instructions, navigating unstructured environments, and executing complex tasks. You will sit at the high-stakes intersection of LVMs, LLMs, and Agentic AI, engineering systems that don't just 'see' but reason and act within the physical world. You will own end-to-end technical solutions from research to production deployment, driving innovation through hands-on research, prototyping, and deployment while delivering…
