Amazon Fulfillment Technologies (AFT) powers the physical engine at the heart of Amazon. AFT forms the invisible back half of Amazon that magically turns your click of a button into packages at your door. We build and operate the software, hardware, and processes that run the global network of fulfillment centers, which move billions of units of inventory and ensure customers get what they want when promised. We constantly innovate in the ways we automate and accelerate using state-of-the-art software and hardware technologies while keeping our associates and partners safe. We leverage the latest AWS technologies, big data approaches, and ML to build distributed, highly available systems.
Are you ready for a challenge? As a Software Development Engineer on the Rodeo team, you will develop our next generation of foundational software that provides real-time visibility into outbound and inbound fulfillment workflows. You will build systems that consolidate data from disparate sources across Amazon's fulfillment network, enabling operations managers and automated systems to make critical decisions that get customer shipments out the door on time. You will own design and development of distributed systems that process over 54K transactions per second during peak events while maintaining 99.999% availability with sub-250ms response times. You will contribute to a wide range of projects in a highly collaborative and fast-paced environment, working on everything from event processing pipelines to data indexing systems to customer-facing APIs. You will be involved in all aspects of the software development cycle including scoping, design, implementation, testing, and delivery of your product. A commitment to teamwork, hustle, and strong communication skills are absolute requirements.
