Software Development Engineer - Amazon Publishing Amazon
Seattle, WA

Job Description

Amazon Publishing is looking for a talented and passionate software developer to help us revolutionize the publishing process by innovating on behalf of authors and readers. Our goal is to introduce exceptional authors and their books to readers worldwide, in many different languages and in both physical and Kindle editions. We build products and programs that drive demand, increase readership, and build author reputations. We strive to attract and delight authors and editors by building convenient, efficient, and frictionless services and applications that transform the ways they create, market, and sell books. We operate in a fast-paced environment with tremendous business and engineering opportunities -- we love developers who are driven by our business as well as our technology.

As a key member of the software developer team at Amazon Publishing, you will get the opportunity to own major systems and deliverables and experience all aspects of the development cycle: scoping, design, coding and testing using an agile process. The successful candidate will thrive in a culture of experimentation and innovation, but also have a proven track record of delivering results to solve challenging problems.

If you favor simple and elegant software solutions to complex problems, and obsess over products that directly impact your customers, we need to talk.
