At Amazon Advertising, we're working to build the world's best advertising platform, helping brands connect with customers at the right moment with the right message. We're looking for a passionate, talented, and inventive Software Development Engineer to join our Amazon Demand-Side Platform (ADSP) team focused on forecasting and guidance systems.

Our team builds sophisticated algorithms and services that predict advertising performance, inventory availability, and pricing dynamics to help advertisers optimize their campaigns and maximize return on investment. We operate at massive scale, processing petabytes of data to deliver real-time forecasts, insights and recommendations.

As a Senior SDE, you will design and build distributed systems that power our guidance and forecasting capabilities, work with scientists to leverage Generative-AI and machine-learning, and develop experiences that make these capabilities accessible across the advertising platform. You'll have the opportunity to influence the technical direction of our systems while mentoring other engineers and contributing to a culture of engineering excellence.

• Work closely with our applied-science and product managers to design experiments to improve predictive models and infrastructure
• Create and maintain APIs that expose our services to customers and other ADSP services
• Develop monitoring and alerting systems to ensure accuracy and system reliability
• Collaborate with product managers and other engineering teams to define requirements and deliver features
• Participate in on-call rotations to support business-critical forecasting systems
• Mentor junior engineers and contribute to engineering best practices
