Sr. Software Development Engineer, INTech
Amazon
DESCRIPTION
Amazon brings buyers and sellers together. Our retail customers depend on us to give them access to every product at the best possible price. Our sellers depend on us to give them a platform to launch their business into every home and marketplace. Making this happen is the mission of every engineer on the INTech Latam (Latin America) & APAC (Asia Pacific) team.
We’re the INTech Shopping Experience Development Team. We improve the shopping and buying experience for Latin American and APAC customers and businesses, and we do all this while ensuring our designs adhere to legal and tax compliance with some of the most complicated tax authorities in the world. We’re looking for engineers who are passionate about writing code and who love to build distributed systems that are transactional, scalable, high-throughput, fault-tolerant, and always available. We’re looking for engineers who are able to design and develop beautiful front-end UI as well as the massively scalable backend services to support it. We’re seeking engineers who are comfortable driving the end-to-end solution and who can do so in an autonomous and creative manner.
As an Amazon Senior Software Development Engineer, you will solve unique and complex problems at a rapid pace, utilizing the latest technologies to create solutions that are highly scalable. You will find that there are an unlimited amount of opportunities within Amazon, where developing your career across a wide range of opportunities is highly supported.
Key job responsibilities
As a Senior Software Development Engineer, you'll be in charge of designing, developing, testing, and deploying distributed systems and large-scale solutions for our global customer base. In this role, you'll work closely with the product team to define the team's roadmap. You'll also lead the system architecture design, introduce best practices that ensure a high-quality product, and mentor and develop other engineers. A successful candidate will have a solid background in engineering large-scale software systems, strong technical skills, excellent communication abilities, and a drive to deliver results in a fast-paced environment.
A day in the life
In a typical day, you will be tasked with owning and leading the investigation and architecture for expanding Amazon Retail features to LatAm and APAC. You will need to find ways to optimize or automate those features, or build relevant tooling. You will then be writing the code for those features and coordinating with engineers from other teams to deploy your code in front of customers in production. As a Software Development Engineer you will work on developing and reviewing code, creating design reviews, and participating in operational reviews. Our team office space is full of life and includes snacks, barista-made coffee, team events, and happy hours.
