The role
From Amazon's own posting.
Amazon Fulfillment Technologies (AFT) powers the physical engine at the heart of Amazon. AFT builds and operates software, hardware, and processes that run the global network of fulfillment centers that move many billions of units of inventory, employ tens of thousands of people, and ensure that customers get what they want when we promised we would get it to them. We do this by building automated solutions to handle things that technology does well, while relying on people to handle things that humans do well.
Our Flow systems automate the flow and labor management decisions within the fulfillment facilities. From the moment inventory is scheduled to arrive into the fulfillment center it is processed and stowed to ensure its readiness to fulfill customer orders. Once the order is placed the inventory is picked and the customer shipment flows through various manual and robotic processes up until customer package leaves the fulfillment facility on its way to the customer. Our systems ensure fast and optimal flow within the building by putting just the right resources at the right locations while automatically surfacing and resolving any unforeseen risks to ensure Amazon Associate safety and experience and help Amazon to constantly keep its promise to the customers while optimizing and expanding its business operations.
We are looking for a talented SDE to build best-in-class user experiences for managing and communicating one of the most critical elements of fulfillment operations - staffing assignments. You will partner with product, research scientist, UX and your engineering team to build applications that delight customers and make a real-world impact.
As a member of this team, you will get the opportunity to work on highly visible, innovative projects that directly impact the customer experience. You will be involved in all the aspects of the software development cycle, including scoping, design, implementation, testing, and delivery of your product.
If you are passionate about improving the customer experience, want a chance to influence both product and its underlying technology, and enjoy complex problems, then we want to hear from you.
