Japan Delivery Experience team is seeking a talented, passionate Software Development Engineer. For millions of customers worldwide, the Amazon name is synonymous with delivery – we provide customers with innovative ways to get what they want and need, enabling the choices on speed and convenience on every order, every day. We combine customer impact with retail invention, solving huge technical challenges along the way. We are located in Tokyo, and are a part of the greater Japan Store Tech team, a global software development group.

As a Software Development Engineer, you will help solve a variety of technical challenges and work with a team of extremely talented engineers. Given that we are working on many new innovations, you will play an active role in translating business and functional requirements into concrete deliverables. You will build new customer features, design systems, develop and deploy highly scalable and reliable distributed services. You will tackle challenging, novel situations every day and given the size of this initiative, you’ll have the opportunity to work with multiple technical teams at Amazon in different locations. Your work will directly benefit customers and the retail business, and you will measure the impact using scientific tools. You should be comfortable with a degree of ambiguity that’s higher than most projects and relish the idea of solving problems that, frankly, haven’t been solved at scale before. Along the way, we guarantee that you’ll learn a ton, have fun and make a positive impact on millions of customers.

On a daily basis, you will have the opportunity to:
・Design distributed, multi-tiered systems ranging from small-to-large scale. Own the full software lifecycle from development, testing, documentation, deployment, monitoring, continuous improvement and scaling.
・Understanding business goals and create functional requirements and project schedules together with business teams
