What the job involves

• Amazon Ads is a multi-billion dollar global business that delivers advertising experiences across Amazon's owned-and-operated properties (including Prime Video, Twitch, Fire TV, and Amazon.com), third-party publisher networks, and emerging channels like generative AI-powered shopping experiences
• As one of the fastest-growing segments of Amazon, we operate at unprecedented scale across desktop, mobile, connected TV, and emerging surfaces
• Within Amazon Ads, Traffic Quality is a critical pillar of advertiser trust and marketplace integrity
• Our mission is to build advanced capabilities that work at petabyte scale to detect sophisticated invalid traffic (IVT) which includes sophisticated non-human traffic, bot networks, and fraudulent engagement patterns across programmatic advertising
• We are on a journey to establish Amazon Ads as an industry leader in traffic quality standards and transparency
• Our research agenda focuses on staying ahead of adversarial actors through continuous innovation in detection methodologies, leveraging state-of-the-art techniques in deep learning and generative modeling, user behavior and multi-modal representation learning, anomaly detection, time-series analysis, and sparse labeling methods
• We process billions of ad events daily, developing novel algorithms that balance precision and recall while operating under strict latency constraints
• Our work directly protects hundreds of millions of dollars in advertiser spend annually while maintaining a seamless user experience
• Own the end-to-end product strategy and roadmap for Traffic Quality solutions, including invalid traffic detection, prevention, and measurement systems
• Drive technical innovation in fraud detection methodologies, leveraging machine learning, ad forensics and device attestation
• Lead cross-functional teams to develop and implement sophisticated invalid traffic detection mechanisms
• Define and oversee product metrics, focusing on both technical precision (eg: false positive rates) and business impact (advertiser trust, ad spend protection)
• Collaborate with engineering teams to define requirements for scalable systems that can process billions of daily transactions
• Partner with business stakeholders to align technical capabilities with market needs and compliance requirements
• Drive executive communications and investment decisions through data-driven narratives
• Mentor product managers and contribute to the broader product management community
