About the team
Amazon has a fast-paced environment where we "Work Hard, Have Fun, Make History." On a "typical" day engineers might deep dive to root cause a customer issue, investigate why a metric is trending the wrong way, consult with top Amazon engineers, or discuss new approaches to automate operational issues. Our team is dedicated to supporting new members, has a broad mix of experience levels/tenures, and celebrates knowledge sharing and mentorship. We care about career growth and strive to assign projects based on what will help team members develop and enable them to take on more complex tasks in the future.

Amazon values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the preferred qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn’t followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don’t let it stop you from applying.
