We are looking for an Applied Science Manager to lead the Insights & Prompt Generation vertical within the Conversational Discovery Experiences (CAX) team in Sponsored Products and Brands (SPB). This team owns prompt generation, quality, personalization, and coverage for Sponsored Prompts, a new conversational ad format powered by large language models (LLMs) that helps shoppers discover products across Amazon.com.

As an Applied Science Manager, you will lead a team of applied scientists and engineers to build and scale the prompt generation pipeline, develop new prompt themes and quality frameworks, and drive coverage expansion across all surfaces. You will own the science roadmap for prompt generation and personalization. You will define the metrics that measure prompt effectiveness and drive experimentation to improve CTR, helpfulness, and advertiser outcomes.

This role requires strong technical depth in NLP, LLMs, and information retrieval, combined with the ability to manage and grow a science team, set research direction, and influence product strategy. You will work across organizational boundaries with engineering, product, and business teams to translate science investments into measurable business impact.
