Job description

Amazon's Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC) team is hiring a Software Development Engineer II based in Toronto, Ontario. This is a rare chance to work within a start-up-style environment backed by the full resources of one of the world's largest technology companies — building privacy-safe, cloud-native analytics infrastructure used by advertisers around the globe.

The AMC platform ingests billions of behavioural signals every day, and the engineering challenges that come with that scale are genuinely interesting. You'll be working across massive-scale streaming systems, machine learning, data science, and cloud-native development — with a front-end stack in ReactJS and back-ends built in Kotlin on native AWS.

About the Role: Software Dev Engineer II

As a Software Development Engineer II on the AMC team, your focus will be on the core services that power the platform and enable it to scale. AMC provides advertisers with a secure, privacy-safe cloud environment where they can perform advanced analytics across multiple pseudonymised data sets — informing cross-channel marketing decisions with tools for custom measurement, media planning, targeting, and optimisation. This is a multi-year greenfield project built on a native AWS stack.

The team values solid computer science fundamentals and a proven track record of shipping production-quality software systems. You don't need to be a specialist in every technology used — what matters most is curiosity, strong problem-solving ability, and a genuine drive to build things that scale. You'll be expected to simplify complex problems, engage directly with customers to uncover true requirements, and contribute to a culture of engineering excellence through code reviews and design discussions.

Benefits and Salary

The base salary range for this position in Toronto is $114,800 to $191,800 CAD annually. Amazon's total compensation package may also include sign-on payments and Restricted Stock Units (RSUs), with final compensation determined based on experience, qualifications, and location. Benefits include health insurance (medical, dental, vision, prescription, and basic life & AD&D), a Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP), Deferred Profit Sharing Plan (DPSP), paid time off, and additional resources to support health and well-being.
