We provide this Aced (formerly Exponent) guide for people preparing for Amazon machine learning engineer interviews. ## Guide sections - [Expert guide](https://www.aced.io/guides/amazon-machine-learning-engineer-interview) - [Interview experiences — 7](https://www.aced.io/guides/amazon-machine-learning-engineer-interview/experiences) - [Questions — 78](https://www.aced.io/guides/amazon-machine-learning-engineer-interview/questions) - [Resumes](https://www.aced.io/guides/amazon-machine-learning-engineer-interview/resumes) ## What does an Amazon MLE do? Machine learning occurs across Amazon’s design, business, and customer-service activities. Amazon machine learning engineers may work on projects involving pricing, customer operations, Prime Video, and other teams and products. A substantial amount of this work takes place in the [Amazon Web Services (AWS)](https://aws.amazon.com/) ecosystem. AWS is Amazon’s cloud-computing network, encompassing cloud resources, machine-learning models, database management, virtual private server content, and more. Because AWS handles a broad range of data-processing and data-use projects, it often hires machine learning engineers and applied scientists. For current machine-learning openings, visit [Amazon’s job board](https://www.amazon.jobs/en/search?base_query=Machine+Learning+Engineer&loc_query=&latitude=&longitude=&loc_group_id=&invalid_location=false&country=&city=®ion=&county=). Specific day-to-day responsibilities vary by team. Amazon looks for candidates who combine technical skills with an understanding of Amazon’s leadership principles. The work may include developing algorithms for business applications and building machine-learning models, with an emphasis on a customer-obsessed attitude. ## What are the typical job requirements for an Amazon MLE? ### Education Although exceptions exist, most Amazon machine-learning roles require a master’s degree or PhD. For many roles, a PhD appears among the basic qualifications, particularly in specialized areas. The remainder of the guide is member-only. We offer members the complete guide, all prep courses, practice tools, job referrals, and the resources needed to pursue an offer. - [Become a member](https://www.aced.io/upgrade?src=guide) - [Already a member?
