Job description

Software Development Engineer (Android), Transporter Experience (Last Mile)

Come join the team that works on the latest delivery features for our Amazon customers and Delivery Associates.

Our mission is to provide Amazon customers and transporters with a unified, efficient delivery and pickup experience. We strive to eliminate all possible variances and complexities associated with on-road pickup and attended deliveries, ultimately creating a seamless and delightful experience for our customers and transporters.

The team you'd be joining provides transporters with knowledge, contextual help, and experience that enables gains in productivity (Service Time), quality (First Time Delivery Success), engagement (Attrition), and compliance with local regulations.

Are you interested in developing modern technology that will help Amazon deliver packages worldwide efficiently and quickly? The Amazon Flex mobile team focuses on providing smart and efficient mobile solutions that scale to delivering millions of packages every month. It is still Day 1 in the Last Mile Technology space!

Amazon Flex is the system that works with crowd-sourced and third-party delivery partners to complete all of Amazon’s deliveries. Our Amazon Flex application works in concert with our advanced logistics systems and technology. These technologies allow delivery partners to onboard, schedule delivery times in advance or on-demand, and be guided through their deliveries with in-app mapping, navigation, and much more. Our ability to engage with, serve, and provide a world-class experience to both customers and our delivery partners has become more critical as we continue to expand the number of delivery partners and target faster deliveries to our customers.

Key job responsibilities:

1. Being part of a customer-obsessed company and working as part of this team, you’ll be responsible for the design, development, testing, and deployment of a range of products that make it possible to deliver packages to customers in two hours or less all over the world.
2. You will have an opportunity to conceptualize, design, build, test, and own software systems.
3. You will influence the technical direction of the team, working with many different technologies.

If you are a software engineer with a creative flair, problem-solving skills, exposure to various technologies such as Android SDK and Kotlin, and have the desire to help drive Amazon's next generation of delivery, we want to talk with you.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

1. 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
2. 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability, and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
3. Experience programming with at least one software programming language
4. 2+ years of Android development experience
