Description For Software Development Engineer, AFT Outbound/Flow

Are you seeking an environment where you can apply state-of-the-art computer science techniques, work with cutting-edge tools and technologies, and use huge amounts of data to solve real-world problems and make a massive impact? Come and join us in the Picking Toronto team within Amazon Fulfillment Technologies!

Amazon Fulfillment Technologies builds software, hardware, and processes that help tens of thousands of employees deliver billions of items a year from over eighty warehouses worldwide. We ensure that you get what you want when we promised it to you. We are at the core of Amazon's business and our software is mission-critical.

The Picking Toronto team creates the software that makes it easy for Amazon staff to safely, quickly and accurately perform the most labour-intensive warehouse function: picking the items for your order. We deal with real physical processes, and our systems need to make decisions within real-time constraints. At our scale, a small optimization can instantly help thousands of staff and save Amazon millions of dollars: savings we can pass on to our customers to keep our prices low.

As a software engineer at Amazon, you're responsible for much more than just writing robust, reliable, scalable and readable code. You will work directly with the users of your software, to deeply understand the domain and identify opportunities for improvements and optimizations. We are looking for true engineers that find practical technology solutions to real problems.

Amazon Fulfillment Technologies (AFT) powers Amazon's global fulfillment network. We invent and deliver software, hardware, and data science solutions that orchestrate processes, robots, machines, and people. We harmonize the physical and virtual world so Amazon customers can get what they want, when they want it.

The Outbound Flow AFT team pairs data science with innovative technologies to optimize throughput within every Amazon fulfillment center. We deliver smiles for Amazon customers with safe, sustainable, cost-effective, on-time package deliveries.

If you are passionate about this role and want to make an impact on a global scale, we'd love to hear from you! At Amazon, we value people with unique backgrounds, experiences, and skillsets.
