As a Software Engineer you will take an exciting and challenging role on a team that is innovating on the Reading experience on mobile devices for millions of Amazon customers. You will work with world-class engineers, business leaders, and other talented engineering teams while you design, architect, and code for Kindle Reader iOS, Android app and E-Reader software. You will join a team that is developing a platform on which many other Amazon partner teams innovate their reader experiences.
Key job responsibilities
As a software engineer, you will think big and drive architecture decisions in Kindle Reader by having opportunity working on cross-OS platform and develop multiple services to deliver awesome reader experience. We are looking for a passionate, hard-working, and talented software engineer who has experience building mission critical, high volume applications that customers love.
A day in the life
The Kindle Sync team keeps customers’ Kindle experiences seamlessly and reliably in sync as they switch across surfaces or devices. This also includes secure storage and backup of customer-generated data so customers can access their information when they need to — such as when they replace an old device with a new one — ensuring their reading and notetaking experience always feels personal and up-to-date.
As a engineer you will have opportunity to work with:
- The foundational tech stack for syncing and storing structured annotations (i.e. text sticky notes, highlights, bookmarks).
- Sync CX features such as MRPR (most recent page read CX) and FPR (furthest page read).
- The core sync architecture driving our vision to be a federated, scalable, “plug and play” sync service for any Kindle and Books feature requiring sync.
- Notetaking Sync: The effective back-end for handwritten notetaking (via Kindle Scribe), this team supports handwritten note sync and storage, data integrity, privacy/security for notetaking, and architectural improvements
