Join us at the forefront of Amazon's sustainability initiatives to work on environmental and social advancements to support Amazon's long term worldwide sustainability strategy. At Amazon, we're working to be the most customer-centric company on earth. To get there, we need exceptionally talented, bright, and driven people.
The Worldwide Sustainability (WWS) organization capitalizes on Amazon’s scale and speed to build a more resilient and sustainable company. We manage our social and environmental impacts globally, and drive solutions that enable our customers, businesses, and the world to become more sustainable.
We are looking for an engineer to build the software and infrastructure that help scientists develop, evaluate, and deploy machine learning models for sustainability applications. You will work directly with applied scientists, turning production-grade science artifacts into reliable systems and building reusable tools that reduce the engineering work required for each new model.
The work spans research workflows and production systems: preparing data for experiments, automating training and evaluation, and making models available through dependable interfaces. A central design challenge is deciding what the platform should handle consistently and where researchers need flexibility. Good abstractions let scientists change a model or transformation without rebuilding the surrounding infrastructure, while keeping the underlying system accessible when something needs to be understood or fixed.
You will also develop interfaces and workflows that support AI-assisted engineering. This includes making platform capabilities understandable to coding agents and building checks that verify their changes before those changes reach production.
Key job responsibilities
About the team
Our team brings together applied scientists and engineers to develop models and software for sustainability applications. We work across research and production, building both scientific methods and the systems needed to use them reliably. That combination keeps platform development close to the practical needs of researchers and the people who depend on their models.
We build reusable tools so that each new research project does not require its own infrastructure. The engineering challenge is to make experimentation easier while preserving the checks and evidence needed to understand results and operate models in production. Scientists and engineers work together on those decisions, including where a shared approach helps and where a scientific problem requires something different.

Amazon is guided by four principles: customer obsession rather than competitor focus, passion for invention, commitment to operational excellence, and long-term thinking. We are driven by the excitement of building technologies, inventing products, and providing services that change lives. We embrace new ways of doing things, make decisions quickly, and are not afraid to fail. We have the scope and capabilities of a large company, and the spirit and heart of a small one.
Together, Amazonians research and develop new technologies from Amazon Web Services to Alexa on behalf of our customers: shoppers, sellers, content creators, and developers around the world.
Our mission is to be Earth's most customer-centric company. Our actions, goals, projects, programs, and inventions begin and end with the customer top of mind.
You'll also hear us say that at Amazon, it's always "Day 1." What do we mean? That our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon's very first day - to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and focus on delighting our customers.
