Who you are
You have a solid background in software development with experience in building scalable applications — you've contributed to projects that require high availability and performance, and you understand the complexities of managing large-scale systems. Your expertise in Java and JavaScript allows you to develop robust backend services and user interfaces that enhance user experience. You are familiar with AWS services and can leverage them to create efficient solutions that meet business needs.

Your role will involve collaborating with product managers and other engineers to define requirements and develop features that enhance the user experience for business buyers.
You will be involved in the full software development lifecycle, from concept to deployment — this includes writing clean, maintainable code, conducting code reviews, and participating in design discussions. You will also be responsible for troubleshooting and resolving issues in production systems, ensuring that our services remain reliable and efficient. Your contributions will directly impact the success of Amazon Business, as you help us build solutions that disrupt the status quo and meet the needs of our customers.
What we offer
At Amazon, we offer a competitive salary and benefits package, including opportunities for career growth and development. You will be part of a dynamic team that values innovation and collaboration, and you will have the chance to work on projects that have a significant impact on the business.
