Job Information

Amazon Front End Engineer, Devices Design Group in Seattle, Washington

Description

Amazon’s Devices and Services Design Group (DDG) imagines the future of software and hardware experiences, powered by Alexa. Join the team behind Echo Show, Echo Spot, Fire TV, Fire Tablets, and the growing family of Echo devices. We’re just getting started, and we’d love to have you join us to bring innovative experiences to millions of customers.

As a member of the Design Engineering team, you’ll support the design studio with your deep technical knowledge and experience working on world-class consumer software experiences. You’ll help your peers unlock technically challenging scenarios and mature the design studio’s ability to deliver design at scale, across a breadth of device categories.

As an experienced Front End Engineer, you will design, build and operate Web services and tooling to advance design methodology and delivery. You’ll interface with teams across a range of product lines and disciplines. Surrounded by world-class talent, and building on a pure AWS infrastructure, you will translate user requirements, drive an evolving architecture, help define our roadmap, and individually contribute code.

This role requires ownership, autonomy, and an ability to deliver results, often within the ambiguity of building a v1 product. You will need to work efficiently to build the right things with limited guidance, and your experience will raise the bar to create an amazing experience for our customers.

About the team

DDG's Design Engineering team empowers the Devices and Services Design Group through the discipline of software engineering in three key areas: software and hardware prototyping; studio tools, utilities, and infrastructure; and front-end engineering in shipping codebases.
