Summary
Pritom A is an Applied Scientist II at Prime Video & Amazon MGM Studios with ~10 years of experience translating NLP and recommender-systems research into production personalization and discovery features. He holds a PhD in Computer Science from UIUC where his work on LLMs, semantic modeling, and multi-agent systems led to publications at ACL, EMNLP, IJCAI and PAKDD. At Amazon he’s focused on LLM-driven search, efficient model distillation, and multi-agent relevance judgment for content discovery, building systems that balance generation quality with runtime constraints. His internships at Amazon and IBM bridged conversational AI, longform QA, and recommender research, enabling fast prototypes that informed product evaluation. Based in Seattle, he blends deep academic rigor with hands-on engineering across research and production pipelines. A less obvious strength is his consistent mentorship and teaching experience during his PhD, which helps him communicate complex ML ideas to cross-functional teams.
