This is a unique opportunity for a postdoc to work on research projects that investigate state of the art NLP, IR, and LLM approaches for understanding retail products and their pricing. This will include working with billion-scale datasets and investigating how the world knowledge captured by LLMs reflects real world prices, and investigating more advanced prompting and reasoning techniques to construct large knowledge graphs that are specialized for various pricing use cases such as probabilistic price estimation, as well as error detection and correction.
Key job responsibilities
In this role you will:
• Work closely with a senior science advisor, collaborate with other scientists and engineers, and be part of Amazon’s vibrant and diverse global science community.
• Publish your innovation in top-tier academic venues and hone your presentation skills.
• Be inspired by challenges and opportunities to invent cutting-edge techniques in your area(s) of expertise.
About the team
The retail pricing science team is a centralized diverse team of STEM scientists that develop statistical, ML, RL, optimization and economic models that drive pricing for products sold by Amazon worldwide, as well as monitoring of prices and experimentations in pricing. The team has a dual focus on competitiveness and long term financial optimality.
