Do you love solving problems whose solutions make the world a better place? The Amazon Community Impact team leads philanthropic initiatives focused on education, housing affordability, food security, disaster relief, and support for employees and teams volunteering in our communities. https://www.aboutamazon.com/impact/community

Our team is looking for a Software Development Engineer excited about working across a variety of software stacks, including systems owned by other teams across Amazon, to deliver solutions that support scaling our community impact around the world. From project to project this could involve any or all of building and improving customer facing UIs, modifying large scale distributed systems managing Amazon logistics to better serve community use cases, or creating and optimizing data pipelines to manage and measure our impact metrics.

Inclusive Team Culture

We’re looking for a new teammate who is enthusiastic, empathetic, curious, motivated, reliable, and able to work effectively with a diverse set of peers; someone who will help us amplify the positive & inclusive team culture we’ve been building.

Key job responsibilities

As a Software Development Engineer you will work in a small, close-knit team and also partner with engineers across the company to invent, design, and build highly stable and performant software. You will work with your internal customers to balance customer requirements with team requirements and help your team and business evolve. A successful candidate will thrive in a highly collaborative, results-oriented environment that leverages agile planning techniques. We are looking for an engineer who is comfortable working through ambiguity, who is adept at ramping up on new software stacks, is a creative problem solver, and who can own delivering features from concept to launch. And, of course, a passion for the community.

About the team

The Amazon Community Impact team is passionate about what we do, and we're looking for a teammate who shares that passion. Some of the team came from jobs in other parts of the Amazon business to build our products and programs - they bring their knowledge of how Amazon works at scale to help us grow. We also have teammates with backgrounds working in education, housing, or for non-profits prior to joining Amazon - they bring their industry knowledge on what communities need, and how Amazon's employees can help make meaningful impact in the places where we live and work.
