. Define the science strategy for ads trust.
. Own end-to-end delivery of ML solutions: problem formulation, offline experimentation, online A/B testing, and production deployment. Your models directly move automation and defect metrics reported to senior leadership.
. Build and grow scientists - hire, mentor, and develop team members. Raise the science bar through structured review processes and a publication culture within Amazon.
