Original job description

Have you ever ordered a product from Amazon and been amazed by how fast it gets to you? Every day, Amazon engineers are working relentlessly to make sure that the time from Click to Deliver is as short as possible for your products. In our mission to get packages to you even faster, Amazon Fulfillment Technologies (AFT) is building large scale, fault-tolerant distributed systems for optimizing labor planning in fulfillment operations.

Our team is looking for Software Development Engineers who love listening to our customers, working as a team, and building large scalable systems. This is an opportunity to build and improve systems that will help Fulfillment Centers (FCs i.e. Amazon Warehouses) and other building types around the world to operate efficiently by providing information and insights to FC operators and software services which rely on real time information for planning and staffing. These systems provide aggregate data and help build an end-to-end picture of FC state to help users make key decisions to improve efficiency and staff optimally. These decisions impact delivery of packages to Amazon customers. Your work will directly influence Amazon business and customer promise. As a member of this team, you will get the opportunity to work on highly visible, innovative projects that directly impact the customer experience. You will be involved in all the aspects of the software development cycle including scoping, design, implementation, testing & delivery of your product. The position has great opportunity for growth.

Key job responsibilities
In this position you will partner with product managers, software engineers, user experience designers and other teams. A successful candidate will have an established background with strong technical ability, bar raising engineering skills, great communication skills and motivation to achieve results for your customers.

The benefits that generally apply to regular, full-time employees include:
1. Medical, Dental, and Vision Coverage
2. Maternity and Parental Leave Options
3. Paid Time Off (PTO)
4. 401(k) Plan

If you are not sure that every qualification on the list above describes you exactly, we'd still love to hear from you! At Amazon, we value people with unique backgrounds, experiences, and skillsets. If you’re passionate about this role and want to make an impact on a global scale, please apply!

About the team
Amazon Fulfillment Technologies (AFT) powers Amazon’s global fulfillment network. We invent and deliver software, hardware, and data science solutions that orchestrate processes, robots, machines, and people. We harmonize the physical and virtual world so Amazon customers can get what they want, when they want it.

Workforce Optimization
AFT’s Workforce Optimization team delivers innovative platforms and products to automate labor management and staffing decisions across processes and functions at Amazon’s global fulfillment network locations. Basic Qualifications: - 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
- 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
- Experience programming with at least one software programming language Preferred Qualifications: - 3+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience
