Amazon is building the next generation software, hardware, and processes to run our state-of-the-art global fulfillment network that moves many millions of units of inventory, ensuring that customers get what they want when promised. We are constantly innovating in the ways we are automating and accelerating the delivery of packages which includes custom robotics, mechatronics, conveyance, supply chain optimization, machine learning, manipulation, image processing, and real-time data processing using distributed systems.
We are looking for a software development engineer with a passion to transform the way we integrate robotics within our global network of advanced warehouses. This position is a unique opportunity to be involved in a wide range of automation projects right from the start. You will collaborate with multiple internal Amazon R&D and design teams as well as automation strategic partners who have the technology and resources to meet Amazon’s growth needs on a global scale.
This role is in a newly established team which will create edge compute solutions for industrial automation applications. It is an early-stage initiative with a fast paced, highly collaborative start-up like environment inside Amazon. To be successful you need to be flexible and entrepreneurial. You are a true owner - you are hands on and you set examples to be emulated. You will be responsible for all the aspects of the software development cycle including scoping, design, implementation, testing, and delivery of your product. This is a unique opportunity to define edge-based solutions where the cloud meets the real world in the heart of our fulfillment centers. The ideal candidate will enjoy working at multiple layers of the stack from the low-level machine controls layer up through embedded Linux applications and cloud-based solutions to interface with and manage fleets of real-world devices.
