Original job description

You will partner with software engineers and product managers to build and operate the high-availability, low-latency distributed systems that execute inventory transfer and crossdocking decisions across Amazon's fulfillment network. You will design and build scalable, fault-tolerant, transactional services where correctness and reliability are non-negotiable. The ideal candidate has a high sense of ownership, the ability to deliver end-to-end solutions, and a strong bar for operational excellence. This role will challenge you with problems of scale in distributed systems, high-throughput transaction processing, and building services that stay available and correct under continuous load. If you are excited by cloud computing, designing highly scalable and fault-tolerant systems, and being challenged by hard distributed-systems problems, then join us.

Key job responsibilities
We are looking for an experienced, results-oriented Software Development Engineer capable of building and operating scalable, reliable software for Amazon's inventory transfer systems. The ideal candidate will work with other engineers and product managers to deliver end-to-end solutions to complex business problems at a scale only available at Amazon. You will own the design, delivery, and operation of significant components of a Tier-1 service, raise the operational and design bar for the team, and help drive improvements to our architecture. Here you can take your skills to a new level as you work with modern distributed-systems technologies to deliver solutions that positively impact all Amazon customers.

About the team
Have you ever ordered a product on Amazon and, when that box with the smile arrived, wondered how it got to you so fast? If so, the Amazon Supply Chain Optimization organization (SCOT) is for you: http://bit.ly/amazon-scot. We are the Inbound Systems team within SCOT. Our services are the Tier-1, transactional backbone that executes inventory transfer and crossdocking decisions across Amazon's fulfillment network. When upstream planning systems decide inventory needs to move, we reliably carry out those decisions at scale. We obsess over availability, latency, correctness, and operational excellence, because the network depends on us. 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
- Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent
- Experience building and operating high-availability, Tier-1 distributed transactional systems with a strong operational-excellence and on-call track record.

Amazon is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of protected veteran status, disability, or other legally protected status.

Our inclusive culture empowers Amazonians to deliver the best results for our customers. If you have a disability and need a workplace accommodation or adjustment during the application and hiring process, including support for the interview or onboarding process, please visit https://amazon.jobs/content/en/how-we-hire/accommodations for more information. If the country/region you’re applying in isn’t listed, please contact your Recruiting Partner.

The base salary range for this position is listed below. As a total compensation company, Amazon's package may include other elements such as sign-on payments and restricted stock units (RSUs). Final compensation will be determined based on factors including experience, qualifications, and location. Amazon offers comprehensive benefits including health insurance (medical, dental, vision, prescription, basic life & AD&D insurance), Registered Retirement Savings Plan (RRSP), Deferred Profit Sharing Plan (DPSP), paid time off, and other resources to improve health and well-being. We thank all applicants for their interest, however only those interviewed will be advised as to hiring status.
