Job description

This role is for a senior Data Engineer within a startup team at Amazon Ads Finance, focused on building a finance data platform for agentic AI advertising products. The team is tasked with creating data infrastructure from the ground up, with no legacy systems to contend with. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in data engineering and will work closely with Finance Managers, PM-Ts, Scientists, and Engineering. The position emphasizes the importance of setting high standards for data quality and reliability.

Requirements

  • Deep SQL fluency and 3+ years of experience architecting and operating production ETL on Redshift, Andes, or equivalent at scale.
  • Hands-on experience with the Amazon data stack including Datanet/ETLM, Cradle, Andes 3.0, Redshift Spectrum, EDX, and QuickSight.
  • Strong dimensional data modeling judgment including fact/dim design and experience with denormalization and partitioning.
  • Proficiency in Python or equivalent for orchestration, data quality automation, and pipeline tooling beyond SQL.
  • Experience with AWS technologies such as Redshift, S3, AWS Glue, EMR, Kinesis, FireHose, Lambda, and IAM roles.
  • Experience with non-relational databases or data stores.

Responsibilities

  • Set the technical direction for the FAIM data warehouse, ETL pipelines, and reporting layer.
  • Architect and operate Datanet/ETLM jobs, Cradle profiles, Andes datasets, and dashboards.
  • Integrate telemetry from across Amazon's data ecosystem into a clean, query-ready layer.
  • Deliver on OP1/OP2 cycles, MBR/QBR rhythms, and ad-hoc executive requests with a bias for action.
  • Transform messy, multi-source data into well-documented dimensional models that scale.
  • Drive code and design reviews and establish data quality and pipeline reliability standards.

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.
