About Grant Strimel

I am a Principal Scientist for Amazon AGI and Deep Learning groups at Amazon. I joined in 2018 to build the Alexa Pittsburgh organization, which has now grown to over fifty scientists where our mission is to deliver customer-delighting natural language processing experiences through both edge-first and cloud-centric solutions. My primary focus for Amazon AI has been on low-latency, real-time ML design, and I frequently work cross-discipline with many talented software engineers, product managers, language engineers, hardware architects, legal teams and executive leadership. Generally, my interests lie in the computational aspects of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence broadly construed: online learning, distributed learning, multi-task learning, edge machine learning, model compression, efficient data structures for ML and AI under resource constraints, beyond worst case analysis of algorithms, speech, spoken language understanding and generative AI + LLMs.

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.
