Description

Amazon’s Brisbane-based software engineering teams own the critical last hop in the outbound fulfilment of customer orders. The features you build have a direct impact on customers' lives. You will work with scientists and engineers to optimize fulfilment processes, reducing costs and improving quality. You will experiment with new ideas, turning the successful ones into full production systems whilst failing fast and learning from those that are not. We obsess over reducing the time and cost of fulfilling a customer's order.

What we are looking for:

We are a diverse workforce – our people bring many different experiences to our mission and many different types of leaders succeed here, but have a few things in common:

  • High level of motivation with a drive to deliver results.
  • Analytical acumen and a passion for solving problems (many of which are complex).
  • Ability to make decisions in the face of ambiguity.
  • A desire to experiment, innovate and learn from both successes and failures.
  • Excellent communication skills: ability to work independently across all levels of the organisation, both locally and globally.
  • Enjoyment for working as a team with a strong sense of ownership and personal achievement

Key job responsibilities:

You will join a high-performing, learning-oriented, analytical team, motivated to over-achieve, have fun, and make history. You’ll help foster our culture of technical excellence and entrepreneurial customer obsession. It’s fair to say that no one day is the same – this position is perfect for someone who enjoys variety and problem-solving.

  • Build cutting-edge and highly distributed systems to enable world-class, cost-effective, and flexible under-the-roof solutions.
  • Create customer-facing software that’s used on Amazon sites worldwide
  • Work on the A to Z of problems, at scale, for real customers.
  • Own the development of software end to end, from working with stakeholders on requirements to owning the ongoing operations of the software that you build at scale.

Key Responsibilities include:

  • Ability to code the right solutions starting with broadly defined problems,
  • Understand basic Algorithm fundamentals
  • Development of code in object-oriented languages like C++ and Java and build large scale robust distributed systems

We are open to hiring candidates to work out of one of the following locations:

  • Brisbane, QLD, AUS

Qualifications

Basic Qualifications:

Candidates for this role must have:

  • Completed a degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or Information Technology at a university or relevant tertiary institution in the last 24 months.

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience developing in a Linux environment
  • Experience developing software on Amazon Web Services (AWS) platforms

Acknowledgement of country:

In the spirit of reconciliation, Amazon acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of the country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.

As a Brand Specialist Intern, there are two components to the intern program: your designated intern project and the Amazon Vendor Services (AVS) task list. The intern program is designed for you to have ownership by working on a specific problem project whilst giving you a taste of what it's like to be a working Brand Specialist (ie. vendor management, instock management, etc.).

Engaging customers, trying to identify their problems and connect them with the village of Amazonians that have the expertise to solve those problems. This means calling customers, hosting meetings, preparing experts with customer information for those meetings and collating compelling narratives around a problem or solution from our 1000's of customer references. It also means connecting with the Amazon Partner Network - learning about our partners, their offerings and other opportunities or relationships with our customers.

Pros and cons of working at Amazon AU

Pros

  • I enjoy the ownership of my intern project the most at Amazon... There's a large component of fulfilment I receive whenever I find pain points and strategise ways to solve them.

  • Everyone is super friendly and genuinely interested in the work I was doing. Everyone is happy to help and provide valuable feedback, insight, or advice.

  • The decom team is a very supportive and easy-going environment. We have laughs and talk about anything, but when work needs to be done, we collectively lock in and get the work done.

  • The work hours are really flexible. There is no formal logging of hours, and working from home is also an option.

  • The office is located in Town Hall, so it's super convenient... The working spaces are close to huge windows and have lots of plants. There are games rooms with virtual reality headsets, Nintendo Switches, and more.

Cons

    • Since Amazon is a big global company, it does take some time for requested data to be received, especially when dealing with different international time zones.

    • AVS is incredibly results-oriented, which has resulted in some churn over recent periods as people have been unable to deliver results in a way that would allow them to pass their probation period.

    • The interview process was very intense with three rounds, making it difficult but rewarding.

    • Like most jobs, I'd like higher pay but cannot complain.

    • Due to the size of the company and global time zones, responses to urgent queries may be delayed.
