Job Description

Amazon Mobile is one of our fastest growing strategic new businesses focused on mobile commerce. We build, launch and manage Amazon's business on mobile websites and apps across all smartphone and tablet surfaces. Our team is responsible for creating the best shopping experience for customers wherever they go on their favorite mobile devices. To do so, we build core shopping features and invent new and innovative ways for customers to interact with Amazon on their mobile devices.

We solve interesting, real-world challenges - from optimizing content for small screen sizes, developing new ways to shop using mobile devices, overcoming slow networks to inventing different ways customers can interact with mobile devices. We want to enable our customers to go from wanting a product to search, shop and buying it in 30 seconds or less in our award winning Amazon Mobile family of applications. All this is just the tip of the iceberg! Most of our applications run on a range of mobile handsets and tablets including on iOS and Android.

The Mobile Shopping team is building the next generation mobile foundation to power fluid and interactive experiences in Amazon Shopping apps. The ideal candidate will get design and code this foundation with other rock star engineers on the team. The opportunity to make an impact in this role is only limited by the personal capacity of the candidate! If this sounds like a project you've been working towards and would like to deliver, please contact us today, and let's talk about how you can be a part of it.

About you:

You're an engineer looking for a career where you'll be able to build, to deliver, and to impqress. You are passionate about mobile computing and want to disrupt the world of application development on mobile devices. You want to build and enable others to build rich customer experiences, utilizing to the fullest possible extent all the cool hardware on the device. You want to work on projects that require creative thinking and deep understanding of the problem space. You challenge yourself and others to constantly come up with better solutions. You're a thought leader, but you don't just know how to solve the problem, you prove it by building the solution. Last but not the least; you have a high bar for code quality and passion for design and architecture.

About us together:

We're going to change the way customers interact and experience mobile applications. Along the way, we're going to face challenging and interesting problems. We're going to argue about how to solve them, and we'll work together to find a solution that is superior to each of the proposals we came in with. We'll make tough decisions, but we'll understand why - We'll be the dream team. Some of the challenges we'll work on:

* Building a unified cross device application framework using both native and web technologies
* Optimizing experience on variety of devices and screen sizes
* Enabling rich customer experiences by leveraging various sensors on the device (Cameras, GPS, Gyroscope, Accelerometer)
