- Shape customer experience: work directly with designers, product managers (PMs), and business stakeholders to define and deliver a great customer experience
- Drive high-impact work: your code directly serves customers globally, improving reliability, performance, and satisfaction
- Build greenfield front-end systems and reusable component libraries from scratch that operate at global scale
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to shape the future of Amazon Leo's products and services
- Contribute to the technical direction of Amazon Leo's front-end architecture and standards

The ideal candidate will have:

- A passion for building fast, accessible, and delightful web experiences that solve complex, large-scale challenges
- A proven track record of delivering high-quality, production front-end applications
- Deep expertise in modern JavaScript/TypeScript and front-end frameworks such as React, along with strong fundamentals in HTML, CSS, web performance, and accessibility
- Experience building and consuming APIs and integrating front-end applications with cloud-native back-end services on AWS, including modern AI/ML integration patterns where applicable
- A strong sense of ownership, with the ability to make sound architectural decisions and mentor other engineers through code reviews and technical guidance
- Excitement about working in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment to create something truly impactful
