Software Dev Engineer II, Amazon
US, WA, Seattle
In the Universal Brand Catalog (UBC) team at Amazon, we want Amazon to have a complete awareness of all brands on Earth. We aggregate and identify all brands along with complete and accurate facts. Our mission is to establish the world's most comprehensive, accurate, and up-to-date universal brand catalog, setting new standards in brand discovery and coverage.
Universal Brand Catalog is responsible for the modeling and curation of the largest brand catalog in the world which directly powers any brand experience across Amazon. We leverage advanced AI technologies, including the latest Large Language Models (LLMs) and Generative AI (GenAI), to enrich and expand Amazon's brand selection in alignment with consumers’ interests. We solve challenging technical problems such as extracting structured data from unstructured content, automating decision making about brands using various ML models, big data computation and high scale service design to meet our charter. Teams across Amazon consume brand datasets and services to improve brand and product information, search and discoverability, brand protection and delivery experience.
In this role, you'll collaborate with teams across Amazon to drive customer-focused solutions and amplify the impact of your work on our global customer base. You will learn about designing and developing massive distributed systems, big data workflows and low latency web services while innovating beyond "textbook solutions". Technologies involved include NoSQL databases, Java, ReactJS, Elastic Computing, Machine Learning and more.
We are looking for a software engineer who has strong technical design skills and is able to drive technical design of broad efforts that have high impact and visibility. This role has a number of opportunities for cross-boundary ownership and require cross-organizational technical leadership skills to create seamless technical designs and solutions that reliably work end-to-end.
Key job responsibilities
- Partner with Principal Engineers, Principal Applied Scientists, Sr.SDEs, Applied/Research scientists, Product managers and Program Managers to define and grow the technical and architectural vision for UBCs mission-critical systems driving the brand and product experience on Amazon.
- Deliver and own scalable, fault-tolerant, and highly available services that underpin our large-scale data processing solutions.
- Build and own systems for discovery and lifecycle management of millions of brands and petabytes of data.
- Develop solutions to efficiently deploy and orchestrate application flows across a hybrid set of compute environments.
- Utilize serverless and container technologies to build next-gen scalable compute layer solutions.
