About the team
The mission of the Content Localization & Media Quality team in Prime Video is to “Delight Prime Video customers world-wide with defect-free experiences and relevant language options and accessibility assists from Day 1”.
With Prime Video’s 3Y goal to acquire and retain the next 100MM customers from international territories, it is imperative that our selection is made available to international customers in their preferred language. Generating such assets using Localization Service Providers (LSPs) takes multiple weeks to turn around and becomes cost prohibitive when scaled to our entire Catalog across the breadth of languages we support (32 UI languages). The Content Localization & Accessibility team drives this innovation by leveraging state of the art GenAI solutions to generate these multi-lingual and accessibility assets at scale, as well as building supply-chain automation, workflow management tooling and optimized human-in-the-loop solutions.
We obsess over making Prime Video the highest quality streaming platform, ensuring that our customers are guaranteed a defect-free streaming experience through a comprehensive portfolio of AI-driven quality assessment, Agentic Catalog management and innovative self-healing features.
