5 days ago
Our team is passionate about books and obsessed about our authors/publishers, and we're looking for great engineers to join us.
Do you want to solve challenges for the Books business through innovative technology? Do you enjoy working on cutting-edge, scalable services technology in a team environment? Do you like working on industry-defining projects that move the needle?
At Amazon, we hire the best minds in technology to innovate and build on behalf of our customers. The focus we have on our customers is why we are one of the world’s most beloved brands – customer obsession is part of our company DNA. Our Software Development Engineers (SDEs) use cutting-edge technology to solve complex problems and get to see the impact of their work first-hand.
The challenges SDEs solve for at Amazon are big and influence millions of customers, sellers, and products around the world. We are looking for individuals who are passionate about creating new products, features, and services from scratch while managing ambiguity and the pace of a company where development cycles are measured in weeks, not years. If this sounds interesting to you, apply and come chart your own path at Amazon.
Key job responsibilities
Collaborate with experienced cross-disciplinary Amazonians to conceive, design, and bring innovative products and services to market.
Design and build innovative technologies in a large distributed computing environment and help lead fundamental changes in the industry.
Create solutions to run predictions on distributed systems with exposure to innovative technologies at incredible scale and speed.
Build distributed storage, index, and query systems that are scalable, fault-tolerant, low cost, and easy to manage/use.
Design and code the right solutions starting with broadly defined problems.
Work in an agile environment to deliver high-quality software.
A day in the life
Our team works in a highly collaborative environment, not just with other developers, but also with Product Management, QA, UX, Customer Support, and other operations teams. The tools we own are critical to the KDP business, so we work with other dev teams frequently as well.
About The Team
We are focused on all aspects of the experience for KDP authors publishing digital content. Practically that means owning a front-end experience to ingest metadata and book content, back-end services to store and process that data, and integrations with publishing workflows downstream to the Amazon store.
Our team is made up of accomplished engineers, with a culture of fostering growth amongst ourselves and our coworkers. Above all, work-life balance remains a priority for us.
