Job Description

DESCRIPTION

Amazon has helped reinvent how we live our daily lives. As a Recruiting Technology team, we are reinventing the delivery of industry leading hiring experience. My team is working in the area that is ripe for innovation and disruption: human-centric technologies that are scalable and efficient and make candidates feel treated as individuals.

A day in the life
You day may be dedicated to solving a peculiar problem: how do you automate a system among actors who only have soft commitments that they could withdraw at any time.

About the hiring group
The team owns the full experience from the moment a future Amazonian is ready to interview and until the moment they are ready to discuss an offer. We are continuously experimenting, measuring, and learning because Amazon candidates deserve an experience that is respectful, straightforward, and frustration-free. We combine product development, technology investments, UX research, scientific analysis, big data analytics, and process optimization.

Job responsibilities
We are looking for an experienced Software Development Engineer to help the team take reinvent and evolve Amazon hiring experience to the next level. As a Software Development Engineer on the team, you will own significant portions of the product and will have significant influence on our strategy by helping define the next wave of product features and system architecture. The systems are complex and there are huge opportunities to work at all levels from the front-end user experience, to a set of robust platform services, to system level pieces and everything in between. You should be somebody who enjoys working on complex system software, is customer-centric, and is passionate about building quality software as well as achieving operational excellence. A commitment to teamwork, hustle, and strong communication skills are essential.
