DESCRIPTION

Be part of the team that is building something that empowers people to be their own boss.
We are seeking a Software Development Engineer in our Austin, TX site that will obsess over the safety of drivers who use Amazon's mobile delivery application for package delivery.
Amazon's delivery app is the system that collaborates with crowd-sourced and third-party delivery partners to complete deliveries for many of Amazon's programs. Our mobile application works in concert with our advanced logistics systems and predictive analytics. These technologies allow delivery partners to onboard, schedule delivery times in advance or on demand, and be guided through their deliveries with in-app mapping, navigation, and much more.
As an engineer you will work on cutting edge technology to build software that will keep the driver safe while on road. You will build a variety of software ranging from ones that interact with devices and sensors on vehicles to ones that do predictive analysis using machine learning algorithms.
You will work with our product management team to develop the strategy, followed by architecture and implementation of critical safety features into our mobile and back end platform. You will also own software in all phases of the software life-cycle from architecture and design through deployment and release. You will learn about Amazon’s logistics network, interact with other teams to build optimized systems, and have autonomy to deliver software which impacts multiple delivery provider programs.
