Full job description

Description

Are you passionate about creating both the best buying AND selling experience on the internet? Would you enjoy being able to tell your friends your team shipped code that made buying on Amazon easier and safer in your first few weeks? As a Software Development Engineer on the Customer Trust and Partner Services team you will be actively working on systems and features that accomplish this for buyers and sellers on Amazon.com everyday.

Who you are: You’re a a technical leader with the prowess to deliver world-class software. You have great intuition - Amazon teams run like businesses giving you the ownership, allowing you as an engineer to be responsible for the technical solutions that deliver exceptional customer experience.

The Selling Partner Trust team is geared to protect Amazon customers (Buyers, Brand owners and Sellers) from bad actors, abuse and fraud. We realize that the future of Marketplace – and Amazon – is increasing trust across all facets of the buying and fulfillment experience specifically by reducing false positive enforcements of Seller’s account and listings, creating a new mechanism to enforce Sellers that is transparent, data-driven and with a clear path forward. To achieve this goal, we are building a system to rate Seller’s account health using a numeric score that will automatically enforce bad actors. Our vision is to provide Buyers and Sellers with the most trusted experience, exempt from performance gaps, abuse and negative post-purchase experiences.

We will be delivering a wide range of automation and experiences using big data sets and distributed frameworks. You will develop innovative solutions for our Seller Trust experiences. You will develop high performance platforms to service the world's largest selection to millions to customers.

You will be an integral part of an exceptionally talented team. You will have an opportunity to conceptualize, design, build, test and own software systems. You will build services to handle millions of requests per day, while maintaining the response latency in milliseconds and meeting strict SLA requirements. As a SDE at Amazon, you will drive the technical direction of the team, working with many different technologies. You will design and code, troubleshoot and support.

Are you excited about building meaningful and impactful tools that build trust with our Sellers and help them succeed? If so, we are looking for you.
