Software Development Engineer II , Amazon Fulfillment Technologies Inbound

Amazon Fulfillment Technologies (AFT) Inbound builds the systems that move inventory into Amazons fulfillment network at massive scale. Were looking for a Software Development Engineer II with deep data engineering expertise to independently own the large-scale data infrastructure that powers intelligent decision-making across the inbound supply chain. Youll design and build the batch and streaming pipelines data models and processing systems that turn petabytes of raw supply-chain data into reliable well-governed datasets. Youll partner closely with Applied and Research Scientists to feed and productionize Machine Learning (ML) systems and youll raise the engineering bar for how the team builds and operates data at scale.

Key job responsibilities
Independently design build and operate scalable reliable data pipelines (batch and streaming) that ingest transform and serve large volumes of supply-chain data.
Own data modeling data warehousing and the design of curated datasets that serve analytics reporting and Machine Learning (ML) use cases.
Build and maintain feature engineering pipelines and feature stores that supply ML models with high-quality low-latency data.
Lead design reviews and make sound technical trade-offs across performance cost scalability and operational complexity for your area of ownership.
Own data quality lineage and observability across the datasets pipelines and services you build and drive systemic improvements to reliability.
Partner with Applied and Research Scientists to operationalize ML workflows including feature delivery training data preparation and model-scoring pipelines.
Deliver robust well-tested production-quality software and drive engineering best practices (code reviews Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) monitoring operational excellence).
Diagnose and resolve complex production and data issues; participate in on-call and reduce operational load through automation.
Mentor SDE I and early-career engineers and influence the technical roadmap for the teams data platform.


About the team
Amazon Fulfillment Technologies (AFT) Inbound builds the software and science that move inventory into Amazons fulfillment network from the moment a supplier ships product to the point its received stowed and ready to fulfill customer orders. Operating at the scale of billions of units across a global network of fulfillment centers our team owns the data infrastructure and intelligent systems that make inbound flow faster more accurate and more cost-efficient. We work at the intersection of large-scale data engineering and applied Machine Learning (ML) partnering closely with Applied and Research Scientists to turn petabytes of supply-chain data into decisions that ship every day. If youre excited by hard distributed-systems problems real-world scale and building the data foundations that power automation and optimization across Amazons supply chain youll find a high-ownership high-impact home here.
