About Applied Scientist, GenAI

  Description

  Do you want to help define the future of Go to Market (GTM) at AWS using generative AI? You will be part of the core worldwide GenAI Models team, responsible for helping our customers build and deploy Generative AI (GenAI) models to power end applications and use cases across industry verticals. You will engage with product owners to influence product direction and help our customers tap into new markets by utilizing GenAI along with AWS Services. AWS works with a number of GenAI model producers, you will be working directly with them around model performance evaluations, developing demos and proof-of-concepts of GenAI end applications / use cases with large models.

  Key job responsibilities

  You will help develop the industry’s best cloud-based solutions to grow the GenAI business. Working closely with our product and field teams and 3rd party model providers, you will help enable new capabilities for our customers to develop and deploy GenAI workloads on AWS. This involves activities like market sizing, building an opportunity pipeline, working with customers to understand technical requirements for proof-of-concepts (POC), creating content to train the field teams, and driving thought-leadership.

  You will possess a business and technical background that enables you to drive an engagement and interact at the highest levels with startups, Enterprises, and AWS partners. You will have the technical depth and business experience to easily articulate the potential and challenges of GenAI models and applications to engineering teams and C-Level executives. This requires deep familiarity across the stack – compute infrastructure, ML frameworks, orchestration layers, large models, frameworks like LangChain for developing applications powered by GenAI models, MLOPs, as well as target use cases in the cloud.

  You will drive the development of the GTM plan for building and scaling GenAI on AWS, interact with customers directly to understand their business problems, and help them with defining and implementing scalable GenAI solutions to solve them (often via proof-of-concepts). You will also work closely with account teams, research scientists, and product teams to drive model implementations and new solutions.

  You should be passionate about helping companies/partners understand best practices for operating on AWS. An ideal candidate will be adept at interacting, communicating and partnering with other teams within AWS such as product teams, solutions architecture, sales, marketing, business development, and professional services, as well as representing your team to executive management. You will also look for patterns and trends that can be broadly applied across an industry segment or a set of customers that can help accelerate innovation.

  This is an opportunity to be at the forefront of technological transformations, as a key technical leader.
