We’re on the lookout for the curious, those who think big and want to define the world of tomorrow. At Amazon, you will grow into the high impact, think-big person you know you’re ready to be. Every day will be filled with exciting new challenges, developing new skills, and achieving personal growth. How often can you say that your work changes the world? At Amazon, you’ll say it often. Join us and define tomorrow.
Do you want to solve business challenges through innovative technology? Do you enjoy working on the latest, scalable services technology in a team environment? Do you like working on industry-defining projects that move the needle?
At Amazon, we hire the best minds in technology to innovate and build on behalf of our customers. The focus we have on our customers is why we are one of the world’s most beloved brands – customer obsession is part of our company DNA. Our Software Development Engineers (SDEs) use the latest technology to solve complex problems and get to see the impact of their work first-hand.
Key job responsibilities
• Collaborate with experienced cross-disciplinary Amazonians to conceive, design, and bring innovative products and services to market.
• Design and build innovative technologies in a large distributed computing environment and help lead fundamental changes in the industry.
• Create solutions to run predictions on distributed systems with exposure to innovative technologies at incredible scale and speed.
• Build distributed storage, index, and query systems that are scalable, fault-tolerant, low cost, and easy to manage/use.
• Design and code the right solutions starting with broadly defined problems.
• Work in an agile environment to deliver high-quality software.
A day in the life
The challenges SDEs solve for at Amazon are big and influence millions of customers, sellers, and products around the world. We are looking for individuals who are passionate about creating new products, features, and services from scratch while managing ambiguity and the pace of a company where development cycles are measured in weeks, not years.
About the team
Product UI Service (PUIS) is Amazon's Tier-1 rendering service for ASIN faceouts: the product detail pages, search results, and shopping surfaces that shoppers interact with most. It sits at the heart of the Store's rendering stack, orchestrating how product information is fetched, assembled, and delivered across surfaces.
PUIS receives requests from upstream services like Search and PCS, coordinates with AAPI to retrieve product data, and drives the component rendering pipeline that produces the shopper-facing UI. It powers some of Amazon's highest-traffic experiences and operates under strict latency and resiliency requirements.
The space requires engineers who can independently own multi-quarter problems with significant architectural trade-offs, from redesigning the component model for federation to driving alignment with partner teams on data ownership boundaries. Engineers in the team define the path, not just execute it, and have the space to influence a broad surface area comprising of multiple teams. Basic Qualifications: - 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
- 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
- Experience programming with at least one software programming language Preferred Qualifications: - 3+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience
- Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent
