From Amazon's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Amazon is seeking an exceptional Sr. Applied Scientist to lead the development of perception systems that harness the power of radar and thermal imaging — enabling robots to perceive and operate reliably in conditions where conventional vision alone falls short. In this role, you will develop ML-driven perception pipelines for non-traditional sensing modalities, pushing the boundaries of what robots can see, understand, and act upon in challenging real-world environments.
At Amazon, we leverage advanced robotics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to solve some of the most complex operational challenges at a scale unlike anywhere else in the world. Our fleet of robots spans hundreds of facilities globally, working in sophisticated coordination to deliver on our promise of customer excellence.
As a Sr. Applied Scientist in Multi-Modal Perception, you will apply deep computer vision expertise alongside classical signal processing techniques for radar and thermal imaging — modalities that provide robustness in adverse conditions and sensing capability beyond the visible spectrum.
You will develop ML-based methods to extract semantic and geometric information from radar point clouds, radar tensors, and thermal imagery, and fuse these with camera and depth data to build perception systems that are reliable, comprehensive, and ready for deployment at scale.
Your work will unlock new capabilities for our robots — enabling reliable detection, classification, and scene understanding in low-visibility conditions, cluttered environments, and scenarios where traditional RGB-based perception is insufficient. You will lead research that translates cutting-edge advances in deep learning and computer vision to these underexplored but high-impact sensing modalities.
Join us in building the next generation of multi-modal perception systems that will define the future of autonomous robotics at scale.
Our team is a diverse group of scientists and engineers passionate about building intelligent machines. We value curiosity, rigor, and a bias for action. We believe in learning from failure and iterating quickly toward solutions that matter.
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.
Amazon also offers comprehensive benefits including health insurance (medical, dental, vision, prescription, Basic Life & AD&D insurance and option for Supplemental life plans, EAP, Mental Health Support, Medical Advice Line, Flexible Spending Accounts, Adoption and Surrogacy Reimbursement coverage), 401(k) matching, paid time off, and parental leave.
