Global advertisers rely on our team's performance insights to drive future investment in Amazon's Advertising Platform and improve the relevance of ads shown to customers.

     

    We’re looking for strong Software Engineers that can build upon technologies such as Elasticsearch, Spark, Hive and Presto, as well as AWS services like Elastic Map Reduce (EMR), Redshift, Kinesis and DynamoDB to build the next generation of our analytics and visualization platform. If this sounds interesting we’d love to hear from you!

Be part of a team of industry leading experts that builds and operates one of the largest big data analytics platforms at Amazon.

     

    Amazon is applying the latest big data technologies available to change the way marketers purchase, track, measure, and optimize their advertising spend. We apply these technologies on terabytes of data (over 10B new events per day) and operate clusters that push scalability limits of the existing technologies. We seek to measure every possible signal indicating impact of advertising to provide the most objective result of marketing spends.
