Our vision is to build a real time, intelligent and intuitive hands off the
wheel fully automated system to model Amazon’s complex transportation network
(with billions of attributes like warehouses, routes, time, cost etc.) to give
optimal promises to our customers during ordering and make optimal
transportation decisions during fulfillment. We are looking for a rockstar
senior engineer to help us realize this vision.
The complexity of Amazon transportation network grows exponentially, requiring
innovative approaches in modeling, storing, validating, and processing billions
of rows of configuration. We are looking for a candidate who will help us break
down barriers and build smart and scalable network management system to give
Amazon customers even faster and cheaper delivery. Our technical challenges
involve optimizing relational and non-relational data storage and processing
systems to enable a transportation network at Amazon scale evolving at Amazon
speed. Get ready for SQL and NoSQL databases, Big Data analytics, distributed
systems, map reduce, complex business logic, and highly-optimized multithreaded
code on the edge of capabilities. We are looking for an experienced software
engineer to be a key contributor to our success and drive the strategic
development of the services.
This role might be for you if…
· You design at the product level with heavy involvement through all phases of
the SDLC using concepts that may include Service Oriented Architecture, caching,
load balancing, relational and non-relational databases, micro services,
n-tiered architecture, cloud and/or map-reduce.
· You use object-oriented design concepts to program large multi-tier systems.
You have working knowledge of common and useful design patterns.
· You have designed, refactored, re-architected, deprecated and/or implemented
large-scale cloud-based distributed services with millisecond latency and high
transactional volumes.
· You have experience implementing best practices in improving team coding
culture subjected related to quality and/or security.
· Effectively articulate technical challenges and solutions to non-technical
audiences.
In this job, you will…
· Experiment with whatever technology we need to get the job done.
· Use Test-Driven Development and Continuous Deployment.
· Work with senior leaders across multiple technical and business teams to
design and build highly available and scalable systems for optimizing and
managing Amazon’s transportation network.
· Expand and optimize our world-class supply chain systems to support a variety
of emerging business initiatives.
If you are looking for an opportunity to solve deep technical problems that
pushes the technological boundaries and build innovative solutions that impact
millions of customers in a fast paced environment while working with smart,
passionate software developers, this might be the role for you.
