Machine Learning Engineer II

Quick Facts

• Role: Machine Learning Engineer II

Description

You will design and evolve scalable, high-performance machine learning systems for music content intelligence and catalog serving at Amazon scale. The work spans ML infrastructure for tagging and music similarity, deploying models into production, and building data pipelines and platforms that support both offline processing and real-time customer experiences.

Key Responsibilities

• Enhance core ML infrastructure for tagging music content and improve music similarity capabilities.

• Partner with research scientists to deploy scalable ML models to production, improving model performance and architecture.

• Investigate design approaches, prototype new technologies, and evaluate feasibility (e.g., AutoML and real-time ML serving systems).

• Collaborate on data pipelines to process massive datasets and scale machine learning models.

• Develop and maintain platforms and services for building, evaluating, and deploying ML models in real-world applications.
