Job description

Come help us build on our world-class data streaming service Amazon Marketing Stream. Stream is used by Amazon Ads partners or advertisers to subscribe to advertising data sets. Stream delivers the data to partner or advertiser-owned AWS destinations in near real-time, without needing to call the API repeatedly throughout the day. With Stream, partners and advertisers can use AWS services natively to receive and process advertising data. Stream helps improve data integration patterns and operational efficiency by reducing the number of API calls that are typically required for intra-day campaign optimization.
