Job description

Description

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.

• Develop and implement scalable, automated solutions for complex technical challenges, including distributed systems, APIs, data pipelines, and user‑facing applications across multiple business initiatives

• Contribute directly to critical system components, writing high‑quality code that ensures engineering excellence in performance, reliability, and maintainability

• Design and execute experiments and analyses to evaluate software solutions, ensuring data‑driven optimization and measurable impact on product metrics and user experience

• Apply software engineering best practices to your work, contribute technical insights to team discussions, and help drive innovation in system architecture and development methodologies

• Collaborate with product managers, designers, and engineers to translate complex business requirements into scalable technical solutions that align with product objectives and user needs

• Create technical documentation and effectively communicate system designs, implementation details, and project outcomes to both technical teams and stakeholders

• Participate in code reviews, share knowledge with team members, and contribute to establishing engineering standards that promote code quality and team effectiveness

• Stay current with advancements in software engineering, cloud technologies, and development tools, identifying opportunities to apply emerging technologies to solve real‑world product challenges
