About the team
Prime Video Discovery and Personalization Data Platform team owns of a set of services, APIs, offline datasets and push notifications. It streamlines ML and engineering teams to access and leverage high-quality customer data and signals (ex: impressions, channel signups) for offline processing and in real-time adhering to committed SLAs. We act as guardians and gatekeepers of the data creating data quality transparency for data consumers while collaborating with data sources to address problems at their root. We enable ML and engineering teams to focus on deriving value for end customers rather than resolving data inconsistencies.
