- Write clean, maintainable code following best practices and design patterns.
- Work in an agile environment practicing CI/CD principles while participating in operational responsibilities.

As an intern, you will be matched to a manager and a mentor and will have the opportunity to influence the evolution of Amazon technology and lead critical projects early in your career. In addition to working on an impactful project, you will engage with Amazonians for personal and professional development, expand your network, and participate in activities with other interns throughout your internship.
