DESCRIPTION
Are you interested in building innovative services with global reach? Does impacting how mobile software is developed and hundreds of thousands of mobile devices are managed sound like fun? We are looking for a talented Senior Systems Development Engineer to join us in our mission to build end-user solutions and developer tools for the industrial Android devices deployed globally across Amazon's fulfillment network.
In this role, you'll lead the design, build, and delivery of solutions like automated device provisioning and new Android device testing services used daily by development teams across Amazon. You'll directly influence hardware development roadmaps, the construction and feature development of mobile device management services, device telemetry and data services, and even how one million-plus Amazon associates deliver shipments to millions or retail customers every day.
To be successful, you should be excited about tackling highly ambiguous problems without any predefined path where you need to design non-obvious, elegant solutions. You should be team obsessed and enjoy helping your team members to grow and achieve outstanding results in a creative and collaborative atmosphere. You should be passionate about creating maintainable, high quality software. Based on your history of outstanding results for customers, you should deeply understand the challenges of building large-scale production systems.
