Amazon is looking for talented Postdoctoral Scientists to join our research team for a full-time research position focused on visual localization and navigation for real-world applications.
Our work focuses on developing next-generation assistive technologies and logistics platforms that rely on robust, scalable visual perception systems. We are building solutions that enable devices and agents to understand, localize within, and navigate complex real-world environments-from indoor spaces with dynamic layouts to large-scale outdoor settings.
We are looking for Postdoctoral Scientists to work at the intersection of computer vision, SLAM, and scene understanding-supporting innovations that will be deployed to real systems at global scale.
The core technical challenges include building metric-semantic maps of complex environments, performing robust visual relocalization under appearance change, maintaining long-term map consistency, and achieving accurate monocular localization using both geometric and learning-based approaches-all under real-time constraints on real hardware.
The solution space is deliberately open-ended. We are looking for researchers who want to push the boundaries of visual localization and spatial AI-and see their work running on real platforms within months.
