Job Description
Interested in making history with the team that helps drive 6% of all Internet traffic?
Prime Video is disrupting traditional media with an ever-increasing selection of movies, TV shows, award winning original content, live sports, and premium subscriptions (including HBO, Starz, and MLB.TV). Our systems operate at Amazon-scale, running in over 240 territories worldwide.
The Playback Services team builds the systems that power video delivery for all of Prime Video. Every time a customer clicks play in a Prime Video app our services are invoked. We own the player-facing APIs, along with geo location, content protection, and fraud detection systems.
As a Software Development Engineer on the Playback Services team you will:
* Design, implement, and operate distributed systems for massive live events including Thursday Night Football and English Premier League
* Use cloud technologies including EC2, S3, DynamoDB, Lambda, Kinesis, and CloudFront to build end-to-end solutions
* Partner with device teams in integrating our services with new and unreleased devices
* Continuously raise the bar for code quality, reliability, and operational excellence
Successful Software Engineer candidates have a solid background in modern programming languages, distributed system design, and high-scalability. Experience with machine learning and big data is a plus.About Amazon
