Description

Build and maintain scalable data infrastructure to support innovative AI robotics research. Design dataset management systems including automated pipelines for data ingestion, processing, and curation. Develop visualization and inspection tools for dataset exploration and quality assessment. Research and implement state-of-the-art data filtering techniques including deduplication, quality scoring, and model-based filtering methods. Collaborate directly with science teams to support research projects through both infrastructure development and hands-on technical contribution to data preparation workflows.

About the team
At Frontier AI & Robotics, we're not just advancing robotics – we're reimagining it from the ground up. Our team is building the future of intelligent robotics through frontier foundation models and end-to-end learned systems. We tackle some of the most challenging problems in AI and robotics, from developing sophisticated perception systems to creating adaptive manipulation strategies that work in complex, real-world scenarios.

What sets us apart is our unique combination of ambitious research vision and practical impact. We leverage Amazon's massive computational infrastructure and rich real-world datasets to train and deploy state-of-the-art foundation models. Our work spans the full spectrum of robotics intelligence – from multimodal perception using images, videos, and sensor data, to sophisticated manipulation strategies that can handle diverse real-world scenarios. We're building systems that don't just work in the lab, but scale to meet the demands of Amazon's global operations.

Join us if you're excited about pushing the boundaries of what's possible in robotics, working with world-class researchers, and seeing your innovations deployed at unprecedented scale.
