Sr Software Development Engineer, Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC)

Are you passionate about Big Data and Distributed systems? Do you enjoy building new state-of-the-art products at internet scale? Do you want to work in a start-up environment with the resources of Amazon behind you? We have an opening for a software engineer on the Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC) team.

AMC teams build a secure, privacy-safe, and dedicated cloud-based environment in which advertisers can easily perform analytics across multiple data sets enabling them to make more informed decisions about their cross-channel marketing investments. The role will be focused on the services that power AMC and enable it to scale.

Our services ingest billions of behavioral signals every day. Speed, scale, and accuracy are critical to our success. We work in some of the most exciting computer science domains (massive scale streaming systems, machine learning, data science, cloud native development). We build front-ends in ReactJS and back-ends with Kotlin and native AWS. We are *not* looking for an expert in any one of these particular domains (although, it wouldn't hurt). We are looking for a motivated software engineer with a proven track record of solid computer science fundamentals and building production quality software systems.

If you are excited about working with the latest technologies to massively scale a new product this is the right place for you. The ideal candidate will be innovative, have great problem solving, analytical and technical skills. You demonstrate exceptional customer relationships skills and love to discover the true requirements underlying feature requests. You enjoy simplifying complex problems and tackling challenges.

If this sounds like a good fit, then come help us build the Amazon Marketing Cloud.
