Job description

We are seeking a Software Development Engineer to contribute autonomously to the development of next-generation self-service tools for global customers. This role involves owning features throughout the software lifecycle, from design to deployment, while ensuring high-quality, maintainable code. The engineer will also maintain existing solutions and mentor other engineers through code reviews. A strong focus on customer needs and scalable solutions is essential.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
  • 2+ years of design or architecture experience for new and existing systems
  • 1+ years of experience designing and developing large-scale software applications using C#, C++, Java, or Perl
  • 1+ years of Object Oriented Design experience
  • Bachelor's degree or foreign equivalent in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field

Responsibilities

  • Own features end-to-end across the full software lifecycle, from customer requirements through design, implementation, testing, deployment, operations, and documentation
  • Develop high-quality, maintainable code that others can confidently extend
  • Take on projects requiring problem-solving and technical judgment for implementation details
  • Balance competing constraints to avoid short-term workarounds that compromise system quality
  • Deliver scalable, high-availability solutions for millions of Amazon customers globally
  • Maintain and enhance the current solution stack while developing next-generation tools
  • Mentor other engineers through code review as a teaching mechanism
  • Demonstrate customer obsession by prioritizing user needs and scalability
  • Contribute to the design and architecture of self-service tools that scale globally
  • Ensure code quality, performance, and reliability through rigorous testing and operational excellence

Benefits

  • Employees at Amazon are often offered comprehensive health benefits—including multiple medical plan options (no pre-existing condition exclusions, 100% covered in-network preventive care), dental and vision plans, a 24/7 medical advice line from day one, expert second-opinion services, and broad mental-health support with several free counseling sessions (including pediatric). Financial wellness typically includes a 401(k) with company match (up to 2%), Restricted Stock Units (equity), FSAs, an emergency savings program, product and partner discounts, and even college-savings and home-purchase programs. Overall, the package is designed to support employees and their families’ health, finances, and day-to-day life.
