Job description

Want to develop software systems for a team that’s at the center of the supply chain universe? Sourcing Performance, part of Supply Chain Optimization Technologies (SCOT), is seeking a software development engineer to design, build, and maintain our critical purchase order and supply chain performance systems.

At Amazon, we work hard to make the products our customers want and love available for purchase on our website. Last year, we ordered more than 10 billion items from thousands of vendors. Each time we procure inventory, there are critical financial and operational decisions that must be made, and performance standards that our vendors and internal teams must meet to ensure an optimal retail experience for our customers. Sourcing Performance team owns the software systems that make key decisions about Purchase Orders (POs), create and transmit POs to vendors, measure vendor performance against standards and policies, and use feedback, coaching, and financial chargebacks to drive vendors to reduce defects in the supply chain.

Key job responsibilities

As an SDE II, you will be expected to design, implement, and deploy changes to critical sourcing systems (with multiple dependencies) while maintaining high up-time. You will need to have a good grasp of the business and technical domain to understand how each system changes affect clients/dependencies. You will need to be able to work effectively with non-tech stakeholders (e.g.PMs) from other teams/orgs in order to gather requirements, identify risks, and translate business usecases to technical requirements.

A successful SDE II should also have strong technical skills to design and develop scalable, maintainable, and high uptime systems. They should be able to Think Big and Invent and Simplify to come up with high impact/low churn solutions to difficult problems, and Deliver Results to ensure committed timelines are met despite blockers. In case of issues and escalations, an SDE II should be able to quickly identify, investigate, and resolve issues across multiple systems/teams (Bias for Action and Dive Deep).
