Do you have a passion for solving complex customer-facing problems in Search? Do you enjoy creating efficient, responsive Search systems that return highly personalized results, at scale? How about at Amazon scale? As a lead member of the Amazon Music Search team, you will be responsible for leading cross-team efforts to improve the ways that we serve personally relevant results when our customers find and experience music on our voice and visual clients (think Amazon Music Unlimited and Prime Music on Alexa, mobile apps, FireTV, Roku etc.)
The ideal candidate is one who is passionate about innovating for customers in a nimble team, and has a demonstrable track record of success in delivering new features and products. A commitment to work across teams, bias for action, and strong communication skills (to both business and technical partners) are absolute requirements. Creating reliable, scalable, and high performance systems requires exceptional technical expertise: a sound understanding of the fundamentals of Computer Science, and practical experience building large-scale distributed systems.
In this role, you will own the backend systems that generate the data, and also the serving systems that respond to customer queries.
