READY TO DO SOMETHING BIG?

How would you build the next generation of mission critical systems and services that power the unified inventory reconciliations utilized by all Amazon entities?

Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) is the Amazon service for world-wide sellers that offers access to Amazon’s vast distribution network as a service. Similar to how AWS provides infrastructure as a service, FBA allows sellers to only pay for what they use, creating a seamless experience to leverage our world-class infrastructure. Sellers in 135 countries worldwide, from Fortune 50 companies to hundreds of thousands of small businesses and entrepreneurs, rely upon our world-leading technology to grow and thrive on Amazon’s Marketplaces.

In a very real way, we are changing lives with the work we do. FBA team members wake up every day thinking about how to enable our Selling Partners to be successful by building highly scalable and highly reliable platforms. Enabling Selling Partner success allows us to provide Amazon customers with unparalleled selection and pricing. FBA is a win for Selling Partner and a win for customers.

As a technical leader within FBA, you will be able to show your passion for customers and disrupt the world of e-commerce by building and delivering systems at Amazon scale. You will lead projects that require creative thinking and deep understanding of the problem space while collaborating on product decisions with the product teams. You challenge yourself and others to come up with best-in-class solutions to the most difficult problems. You are a thought leader, but you don't just know how to solve the problem, you prove it by building the solution. Last but not the least; you have a high bar for code quality and passion for design and architecture.

We operate as a startup within Amazon, providing our team great flexibility in product and technology direction. We face challenging and interesting problems and at times do not know the best path forward. Backed by passionate leaders and a strong team culture, we’ll make tough decisions, understand why and change the world together. Come, join us and build the future!

It leverages the discrepancy visibility from IAP (Inventory Authority Platform), together with various other context data to attempt to understand what went wrong resulting in IAP's discrepancies, take appropriate actions if it determines to be justified.
