Job description

Software Dev Engineer, Benefits Experience and Technology (BXT)

Job ID: 2998737 | Amazon.com Services LLC

Our mission is to make it easy for employees and their family to discover and use the benefits that apply to them. Today’s traditional benefit experiences rely heavily on content, explanations, and instructions for people to understand what’s available to them and how to use it. We are bringing personalized and friction-free benefits to the tip of the fingers of over five million people (our employees and their dependents). Amazon Benefits help them live richer and fuller lives, be it by helping them in a moment of medical need, saving for retirement, or helping them with a vacation. We are building a delightful mobile and web experience integrated with internal and external systems, so employees don’t have to go through hoops to get what they want. No employer has ever done this level of experience or personalization before and we are breaking new ground.

A successful SDE II will have a broad array of experiences, exceptional design skills, an excellent ability to solve problems, good communication skills and a desire to be a key technical contributor. The software you will be responsible for will require a breadth of technical development knowledge (i.e. distributed real-time systems, big data, orchestration software). Daily work will involve interacting with engineers, product stakeholders and managers, working on creative algorithms and building large-scale systems.

Key job responsibilities
As an SDE II on the team you will take ownership over the software design, documentation, development, engineering approach, delivery and support of new Benefits platform built natively in AWS. You will actively participate in the design, technology selection, and build of the platform.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

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

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

- 3+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience
- Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent
