About the role
Amazon Robotics is hiring an Applied Science Manager to lead a team of scientists and engineers in building next-generation manipulation systems for fulfillment centers. You will shape science strategy, drive product features, and mentor a diverse group of researchers in perception, grasp learning, and foundation models.
The role requires a PhD or Master’s with deep research background, 6+ years of applied research, and prior ML management experience.
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.
