Postdoctoral Scientist, Stores Foundational AI

Amazon is looking for talented Postdoctoral Scientists to join our Stores Foundational AI team for a one-year, full-time research position.The Stores Foundational AI team builds foundation models for multiple Amazon entities, such as ASIN, customer, seller and brand. These foundation models are used in downstream applications by various partner teams in Stores. Our team also invests in building foundational large language models, which can power conversational applications as well as machine learning tasks with scarce data (zero/few-shot learning).The postdoc is expected to develop machine learning techniques for Large Language Model (LLM) Alignment. Currently, Alignment techniques for LLMs rely primarily on the annotation of preference between alternative responses followed by policy (LLM) optimization either directly (DPO-style) or after learning one or multiple reward functions (PPO-style). However, the data from such annotation is often noisy and confounded by ambiguity, subjectivity, and multi-dimensionality of preference. The goal of the project is to develop 1) high-quality data annotation procedures with clear instructions, 2) preference models which account for noisiness, ambiguity, subjectivity, and multi-dimensionality of preference annotation, and 3) appropriate algorithms for directly optimizing the policy (LLM) or appropriate loss functions for learning rewards using such preference models.Key job responsibilities• Work closely with a senior science advisor, collaborate with other scientists and engineers, and be part of Amazon’s vibrant and diverse global science community.• Publish your innovation in top-tier academic venues and hone your presentation skills.• Be inspired by challenges and opportunities to invent cutting-edge techniques in your area(s) of expertise.
