DESCRIPTION

Amazon’s Automated Marketing & Events organization is building the Internet’s largest-scale Search Marketing systems worldwide. The team is responsible for a number of business-critical systems that generates, target, measures and optimizes hundreds of millions of search engine ad placements and organic search listings (SERPs). We bring prospective customers who start their shopping journeys on search engines to Amazon through our ML-driven software and systems. We apply best-in-class digital marketing optimization techniques like search engine optimization (SEO) to process and optimize billions of webpages, images, videos and content snippets to improve Amazon’s organic discoverability. We routinely solve challenges related to large-scale distributed services, applied science (ML/NLP), big data systems and web search services. Cutting edge technology and algorithms including data mining, statistical modeling, and machine learning are the core of our business. The ideal candidate for our team is a thinker and a doer: someone who loves sophisticated algorithms and mathematical precision, but at the same time enjoys implementing and scaling real systems, and is motivated by the prospect of spectacular business returns.

Key job responsibilities

  • Architect, design and build large-scale, closed-loop optimization systems that power Amazon websites.
  • Develop smart decision engines based on ML models developed by machine learning and applied scientists.
  • Own the delivery of end-to-end, full stack solutions.
  • Make sound engineering decisions and improve software development practices.
  • Build analytics platforms to process large volumes of traffic data, trends in search terms, and other key metrics.
  • Build experimentation frameworks to drive continuous testing.
  • Contribute to the team’s technical vision and roadmap.

A day in the life

You will lead development efforts to solve large-scale big data problems and build distributed science driven systems. You will oversee the architecture, design and development of our solutions, which gives you the opportunity to work with a wide range of customer-facing technologies (including Tier-1 services) and collaborate with other teams. You will collaborate directly with senior leadership and have direct influence over our teams. You will build ML-driven solutions and large-scale big data systems and services to bring customers who start their shopping journeys on search engines; and you will shape our next-generation automated closed-loop search marketing systems.
