About the role

Amazon seeks exceptional PhD students for a 2027 Applied Science Internship in Natural Language Processing and Speech Technologies. You will work on NLP/NLU, LLMs, reinforcement learning with human feedback, conversational AI, and multimodal learning, contributing to production-scale research with state-of-the-art computing resources. You will collaborate with global experts, publish findings, and develop scalable AI methods while thriving in a fast-paced, innovative environment.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
