Interns will join Amazon's Global Accounting, an organization committed to building scalable processes and strong internal controls that support Amazon's rapid growth across all lines of operations. We drive timely and accurate financial reporting by enhancing the efficiency of our close processes, and we partner closely with business and technology teams to launch new products and geographies in a well-controlled, automated way.
