About this role
Description
Alexa+ is the world's best Generative AI powered personal assistant / agent for consumers, and is becoming the conversational AI interface for Amazon services with the launch of Alexa for Shopping on Amazon.com and Amazon mobile app. At Alexa Ads, we are creating industry's first and most advanced Agentic Advertising products to drive Agentic Commerce. We are seeking an Applied Scientist to join our newly expanding team in India focused on Alexa Agentic/Conversational Ads and Personalization. In this role, you will build machine learning models that seamlessly and naturally integrate relevant advertising into the Alexa experience while deeply personalizing user interactions. You will work closely with other scientists, engineers, and product managers to take models from conception to production.
Key job responsibilities
We are building a new science team in Bangalore to solve some of the most impactful problems in computational advertising. This isn't about tweaking existing models as we are rethinking how ads are ranked, priced, and personalized across voice-first and screen-first surfaces. These are problems that don't have textbook solutions. Key points to note about the team:
Greenfield team - you are not joining a mature org with rigid processes. You will shape the science roadmap, pick the problems, and define the culture from day one.
Direct business impact — your models directly drive revenue. No yearly cycles to see if your work matters.
Global scope, local autonomy — collaborate with scientists and engineers across Seattle, Sunnyvale, and Bangalore, but own your problem space end-to-end.
Ship AND Publish: We encourage top-tier publications (NeurIPS, ACL, EMNLP, KDD, ICML, WWW) while ensuring your research hits production.
Basic Qualifications
