• Design and develop state of the art software systems that address these complex and ambiguous problems.
• Own the inputs and the business outcome through cultivating a culture of relentless auditing and metric monitoring, automatically where possible.
This is a contractual position which is ideal for candidates who are looking to deal with scaling challenges at Amazon and ready to build mission critical system software applications and tools.
