▪ Work on Alexa as senior leader in the Ranking organization. Ranking takes in the set of possible customer intentions to determine which application (among all skills) should receive the customer request. Specifically I currently work on a set of components that enable models to automatically search for more optimal ways to route in a customer-centric way (with guardrails). We also provide a voice capability to ask customers to clarify when the system cannot choose which application is preferable.
