About this role
Want to build systems that enable Selling Partners to grow their business and delight Amazon customers? As a Software Development Engineer (SDE) II in the Selling Partner Promotions organization, you will build backend services that manage the lifecycle of the promotions customers see on the Retail Website: Deals, Price Discounts, Buy-X-Get-Y, and Coupons. Ideally, you are a self-starter with a passion for technology, enthusiasm for collaboration, and a desire to learn and stay curious. You will join a wider organization with well-defined processes — quarterly planning, office hours, feature intake, and more — designed to minimize churn so our engineers can focus on what they do best: building systems at scale for our Selling Partners and customers.
Key job responsibilities
Our team works every day on challenging problems to improve how Selling Partners create and manage promotions. We own the promotion lifecycle management services ("partner services") behind Deals, Price Discounts, Buy-X-Get-Y, and Coupons.
In this role you will
- Design, build, and operate backend services that capture Selling Partner intent through a well-defined promotion data model.
- Develop and maintain the validation rules that uphold a high quality bar for Amazon shoppers.
- Participate in on-call, operational excellence, and the full software development lifecycle from design through deployment.
A day in the life
You'll collaborate with engineers, product managers, and partner teams to take features from design review through launch, backed by code reviews, CI/CD, and the team's planning cadence.
