Well guys and gals, it?s that time again. Amazon hiring is in full swing and we are looking for good people to help get some very cool projects done.
My team is called Drop Ship Systems and we are responsible for all third party fulfillment for Amazon.com shipping platform; we handle roughly 30% of Amazon?s worldwide volume and have partnerships with over 800 warehouses across the world. It?s a very exciting group and I personally feel it?s a great opportunity for career growth
I have 5 positions open for Software Developers in my team; we are primarily looking for good developers with Java or C++ experience. If you feel that you have a strong CS background and are comfortable standard Java Technologies and J2EE Patterns definitely submit your resume. We are building a brand new set of systems based on a SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) so any knowledge of Web Services/SOAP is a definite plus. Knowledge of JSP/Struts or JMX would be great.
The positions we have open are for all levels from Junior Levels to very Senior Levels so don?t feel shy if you don?t have a lot of experience.
I also have openings for 3 Senior Ops Guys who want to become developers. A great candidate will have good UNIX, Networking, and Problem Solving skills and will have the ability to debug software problems, triage issues, and help insure the operational success of our systems.
There are some TPM, and Account Manager Positions open as well which I can get you hooked up with which are typically suited for people more interested in the business side and partner relation side then those very technically minded. If you can help drive a project from start to end and can keep calm and composed with the most difficult of partners then this is a good position for you.
