Amazon Hunting High And Low For Talent… Including Canada

Amazon is on a hiring binge as of late. The e-commerce pioneers have a number of projects on the go including Streaming Video, Amazon Lockers, Amazon Fresh, and many other services. Thus they’re making the rounds all over the US to find this talent. They’re also coming to Canada in the first week of December which is uncommon for an American company. Not only that, they’re using blogs and other social media to get the word out. Unorthodox? Sure, but it could prove effective in terms of finding the right talent as they’re far more proactive than most companies who are looking for talent.

So what’s the job that they’re looking to fill? Here it is:

As an SDE in this team, you will be completely responsible for the design, engineering, testing, release, and support of your tools. You will own the UI, services, algorithms, and data storage associated with these areas. You will grow, and you will have the independent ability to make a difference in this space for the thousands of representatives who use our tool and the millions of customers they support.
