Software Development Engineer, FinTech

Amazon Finance Technology is seeking a talented Software Development Engineer to join their FinTech team, working on STARK - Amazon's homegrown Treasury Real-Time Knowledge system for intelligent cashflow tracking. This is an exciting opportunity to help revolutionize how big data sets are cataloged, discovered, and searched in one of the world's largest financial data systems.

The role involves building a next-generation horizontally-scalable platform that will handle hundreds of billions of dollars in transactions annually as Amazon grows to a multi-trillion-dollar company. You'll be working on a banks and financial services platform that manages bank balances, cashflows, and cash-impacting transactions across all Amazon businesses.

As a Software Development Engineer, you'll be at the forefront of building this brand-new platform from scratch, currently in the architecture and high-level design phase. You'll be responsible for driving implementation decisions, delivering functional components, and mentoring junior engineers to develop logical & maintainable software that meets high standards of quality and abstraction.

The position offers competitive compensation ranging from $129,300 to $223,600 per year, depending on location and experience, plus equity, sign-on payments, and comprehensive benefits. You'll be working with Amazon's top engineering talent and collaborating with teams across the globe.

The ideal candidate will have 3+ years of professional software development experience, strong system design capabilities, and excellent communication skills. While financial expertise isn't required, you should be comfortable working with highly abstracted, extensible systems in a multi-tenant microservice-oriented architecture.

This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of Amazon's financial technology infrastructure, working with cutting-edge technologies and solving complex problems at scale. You'll be part of a team that uses machine learning to identify anomalies and provide insights across billions of financial transactions, making a direct impact on Amazon's global financial operations.
