Description

Are you a software development engineer with a passion for applying state-of-the-art and machine learning to solve real world problems that directly impacts millions of people? Are you up to the task of delivering innovative and scalable technology that manages automated classification of millions of products involving hundreds of thousands of suppliers and tens of millions of customers around the world? Do you want to get the opportunity to learn computer vision on the job and build a distributed system which can handle throughputs greater than 75000 TPS? If yes, then this opportunity is ideal for you where you will not only get the opportunity to work on building a brand new platform around AI/CV, but also ensure that it can handle the Amazon catalog scale, which is growing at 30% year on year.

We tackle some of the most complex challenges in the industry today to create intelligent algorithms to automatically identify and control hazardous or controlled substances products to make sure that we protect the safety of Amazon customers, partners and employees, while continuing to offer the Earth’s biggest selection of products. You will need to build Amazon scale applications running on our cloud that both leverage and create new technologies to process large volumes of data that derive patterns and conclusions from the data. This opportunity will entail building capabilities right from storage plane to control plane in a fashion that can handle Amazon-scale latency (P99 100ms) and throughput(75000 TPS) challenges. It's an interesting opportunity to work on Amazon scale and at the same time get the opportunity to innovate in the Computer Vision and applied science space.

Software engineers at Amazon are more than just order takers; they see a problem and leverage innovative technology to address it. You will be working with very large data-sets, well beyond the scalability limits of conventional relational databases. We're looking for people who innovate, love solving hard problems, and never take "no" for an answer. You will lead a team of top-notch software developers to work hard, have fun, and make history.
