From Amazon's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Twitch is looking for an Applied Scientist to lead computer vision and video manipulation work within Amazon Publisher Monetization (APM). You will apply large language models (LLMs), vision-language models (VLMs), and traditional computer vision techniques to build products that directly improve how millions of Twitch creators produce content and how viewers engage with it.
This is a high-visibility project backed by senior leadership, and you will have the autonomy to evaluate both first-party and third-party solutions to deliver the highest quality results quickly. If you thrive in a fast-paced, startup-like environment where your scientific decisions shape the product roadmap, we want to hear from you.
Key job responsibilities
Design and deploy computer vision and video manipulation models using LLMs, VLMs, and traditional techniques, taking solutions from research prototype to production.
Partner with senior Product and Twitch leadership to translate customer needs into well-defined scientific problems and deliver end-to-end solutions.
Evaluate and integrate generative AI capabilities across Amazon Bedrock and third-party platforms, selecting the approach that maximizes product quality.
Drive the team's scientific agenda by proposing new initiatives, authoring technical documents, and contributing to external publications.
Mentor fellow scientists and engineers through code reviews, design guidance, and technical assessments that raise the overall quality bar.
The APM science team supports all of Amazon's Publisher Monetization efforts, building the models and systems behind Twitch's creator tools and ad experiences. The team includes applied scientists, software engineers, and product managers who collaborate daily to move ideas from whiteboard to production. We operate with a startup mentality — moving fast, wearing multiple hats, and iterating closely with Twitch and Product partners.
We are accelerating investment in computer vision and generative AI, and this role will be central to that expansion.
The base salary range for this position is listed below. Your Amazon package will include sign-on payments and restricted stock units (RSUs). Final compensation will be determined based on factors including experience, qualifications, and location.
