Software Development Engineer Amazon
Seattle, WA

Job Description

Prime Video is changing the way millions of customers interact with video content. The Prime Video team delivers high-quality video to Amazon customers through subscriptions (Amazon Prime) as well as purchases and rentals. Amazon believes so deeply in the mission of our video offering that we've launched our own studio to create original and exclusive content.

Prime Video Engagement Automation team owns product development of an intelligent channel agnostic engagement automation designed to provide a holistic view of a prime video customer's lifecycle state, recommendations, they have seen, and/or marketing messages they have (or have not) received. Using smart rules and machine learning, self learning system sends relevant, timely, and personalized content on a fully automated basis. We are building a multi-channel campaign management system powered by customer profile data, engagement propensity models and recommendations to enable automated customer segmentation and targeting.

Are you looking for an opportunity to use machine learning and add a valuable skill to your developer toolkit? Are you prepared to take on manual and partially automated business processes and replace them with high-velocity AI enabled services? We are looking for software developers willing to embrace ML, re-invent established business processes, replace them with an algorithm driven platform and most of all, think out side the box for our customers. Prior experience with machine learning is not required, though will be helpful.

You will join a development team that interacts with marketing and data scientist teams. Our team researches and builds channels through which we engage and stay connected with our customers, such as dynamic video ads, personalized e-mail recommendations, amazon retail websites and social media. The services we build rely on leading edge machine learning techniques to learn about our customer needs and to match them with a wide array of video content. In short, we have exciting challenges in an industry that's doubling in size every year, and you can be a part of it!

You get the opportunity to be independent and directly own design and implementation of highly visible components that impact other teams and organizations. You get to work with AWS technologies, build new highly scalable services, integrate with systems built with modern programming languages, and solve business and technical challenges surrounding customer engagement.

To be successful, you will need to be flexible and entrepreneurial. You work on big, creative ideas, and you are hands on with incremental features. You are a true owner - you care about the customer experience deeply and you care about the long term sustainability of the product just as deep. You create extensible design and easy to maintain solutions with the long term vision in mind.
