Description For Technical Lead/Senior SDE, Amazon Stores

Scale at Amazon is, well, really big. There are few companies out there building at our scale and complexity, and even fewer in Europe. As a Senior Software Development Engineer (Senior SDE), you'll be part of a small group of diverse peers that make the Amazon magic happen. With ownership of existing software and building new products, you will lead the design and implementation of largescale efforts from the technical perspective.

You'll not only code, but also drive the direction of the software architecture, and team practices. Our Senior SDEs enjoy a great deal of autonomy and are looked up to as technical leaders. In addition to owning the architecture of a larger product, you will lead code reviews, mentor engineers, and drive important technical decisions.

Opportunities are available in Madrid for various teams including:

  1. Kindle Books Tech team
  2. Amazon Business (AB)
  3. International Technology (InTech) group
  4. Payroll Tech

Key responsibilities:

  • Solving problems that center around scale, across all realms, over hundreds of millions of customers
  • Owning the software architecture and technical designs
  • Writing high quality, maintainable code and performing peer code-reviews
  • Providing technical leadership and expertise
  • Partnering with other teams such as Applied science
  • Mentoring new members as we continue to add to our footprint and scope

As a Sr. software development engineer, you will have a significant impact on the way customers, including friends and family, experience Amazon daily. You'll be responsible for delivering production-ready code that will be used by hundreds of millions of Amazon customers, and you will own end-to-end the customer experience of the services and features that you build.
