Who are we? It’s no secret that Amazon relies on its technology to deliver millions of packages every day to its customers – on time, with low cost. We, the Transportation Technology division, build the complex software solutions that are needed to work across our vendors, warehouses and carriers to optimize both time and cost of getting the packages delivered. That said, this is a multi-billion-dollar business, and our technical journey has only started.
