This role focuses on building and maintaining the systems that power Amazon's product catalog schema using cutting-edge AWS technologies, graph databases, and Ontology standards. The team's mission is to provide high-performance interfaces for reading and editing catalog schema content, optimizing for consistency, latency, and throughput.
As an SDE on this team, you'll work with experienced Amazonians to design and implement solutions that impact millions of customers, sellers, and products worldwide. The role involves building distributed systems, working with large-scale data architectures, and implementing solutions that maintain high performance while handling complex data models.

This is an excellent opportunity for engineers passionate about large-scale systems and data architecture to work on challenging problems that directly impact Amazon's global catalog infrastructure.
The team emphasizes using modern technologies and ontology standards like RDF/OWL/Sparql while supporting critical CRUD operations. You'll be part of a culture that values innovation, technical excellence, and customer obsession, working in an environment where development cycles are fast-paced and impact is measured in weeks, not years.
This role is perfect for someone who enjoys tackling complex technical challenges, working with distributed systems, and has a passion for building scalable, maintainable solutions. You'll have the opportunity to influence the architecture of systems that are fundamental to Amazon's product information management while working alongside some of the best minds in technology.
