Software Development Engineer, Prime Now

Job description

DESCRIPTION

Amazon PrimeNow is now hiring software developers in San Diego! We are looking for a Software Development Engineer to join a highly innovative team that is building brand new, mission critical software for millions of Amazon customers.

As a developer on the team you'll drive improvements to our technology, collaborating with sharp engineers and highly-engaged users to ship code continuously. We have many domains ranging from highly-scalable transactional backend systems, to complex optimization problems, to customer facing mobile apps, so if you love building world-class software of any time, most likely we have a place for you.
We're truly an Agile shop: we work closely with users, deliver features with high frequency, can pivot on a dime when needed, and are aggressive about test coverage, refactoring, and paying off technical debt. We use a broad array of technologies (from Swift to Scala, from NoSQL to JAX-RS) picking the right tool for the job at hand.

We're looking for software development leaders who share our passion for continuously improving the customer experience, who are motivated by challenging problems in distributed systems, algorithms, and HCI, and who love writing great code. If our business and culture sound like they might be a fit, we'd love to hear from you.
