Data Engineer - 2021 (United States)
Seattle, WA
Job Description
Do you enjoy problem-solving and using data to analyze information on a grand scale? Are you passionate about manipulating data to tackle complex internal and external customer problems and improve business results? Do you want to be a part of a fast-paced environment and contribute to one of the most visited sites on the Internet?
At Amazon, we hire the best minds in technology to innovate on behalf of our customers. The intense focus we have on our customers is why we are one of the world's most beloved brands - customer obsession is part of our company DNA. Data engineers use cutting-edge technology to solve complex problems and get to see the impact of their work first-hand.
The challenges data engineers solve for at Amazon are big and impact millions of customers, sellers, and products around the world. Our path is not always simple, so we are selective about who joins us on this journey. There is a certain kind of person who takes on this role at Amazon - someone who is excited by the idea of creating new products, features, and services from scratch while managing ambiguity and the pace of a company whose ship cycles are measured in weeks, not years.
