Joining this team, you’ll experience the benefits of working in a dynamic, entrepreneurial environment, while leveraging the resources of Amazon.com (AMZN), Earth's most customer-centric company one of the world's leading internet companies. We provide a highly customer-centric, team-oriented environment in our offices located in Seattle, Washington.
Key job responsibilities
As a senior technical leader, you will join the ranks of Amazon's most senior technical community, a cross-company collective of Principal, Senior Principal and Distinguished Engineers. This group helps establish technical standards and drives Amazon's overall technical architecture and engineering practices. These leaders work on Amazon's hardest problems, building high quality, architecturally sound systems that are aligned with our business needs. Amazon's senior technical contributors are pragmatic visionaries who can translate business needs into workable technology solutions. Their expertise is deep and broad, hands on, producing both detailed technical work and high-level architectural designs, driven to engage with business problems and leaders to invent simple solutions with real-world application.
The scope of WWS Principal Engineer requires influence and leadership through efficient and thorough communications – making the case for urgency and action when appropriate. Sustainability at Amazon covers a wide range of topics, from carbon to supply chain social responsibility. You will be expected to be equally versatile, able to apply best-in-class technical approach across domains in order to uncover the salient issues and challenges through data, domain development, and scale. Exemplary technical designs and simple, flexible solutions are expected. In Sustainability, technical complexity often stems from a lack of data.
