DESCRIPTION

Amazon's delivery app is the system that collaborates with crowd-sourced and third-party delivery partners to complete deliveries for many of Amazon's programs. Our mobile application works in concert with our advanced logistics systems. These technologies allow delivery partners to onboard, schedule delivery times in advance or on demand, and be guided through their deliveries with in-app mapping, navigation, and much more. Our ability to engage with, support and provide a genuine experience to both customers and our delivery partners has become more critical as we continue to expand the number of delivery partners and target faster deliveries to our customers.
You will be expected to build and own multiple software engineering and services teams working on cutting edge technology. You will have an enormous opportunity to impact the customer experience, design, architecture, and implementation of technology that will be used every day to deliver packages to the customers.
A successful candidate will have an established background in mobile app development (iOS/Android) and in building highly scalable and mission critical software services and APIs, with extensive technical knowledge of development techniques and latest practices. You are a leader of leaders with progressive technical experience, a demonstrated progression of management scope, and a passion for managing engineering talent in a fast-paced environment. You have kept your coding skills sharp, and possess exceptional project management and communication skills. You will draw from your deep and broad technical expertise to hire and mentor engineers, complete hands-on technical work and provide leadership on complex technical issues. You will manage and be responsible for delivering some of our most strategic technical projects.
As a Sr. Software Development Manager, you will be part of the larger technical leadership community at Amazon. This community forms the backbone of the company, plays a critical role in broad business planning, works closely with senior executives to develop business targets and resource requirements, influences our long-term technical and business strategy, helps us hire a talented team of engineers and ultimately enables us to deliver innovative, new solutions rapidly.
We are looking for entrepreneurial, innovative people who thrive on solving tough problems. You will be joining a select group of a people making history producing one of the most critical products at Amazon!
