Software Development Engineer - Automated Advertising
Amazon.com's Automated Advertising team is building the Internet's largest-scale fully-automated advertising system. Our systems and algorithms automatically generate, target, measure, and optimize tens of millions of individual advertisements. We work with an astounding variety of technologies, ranging from web services to information retrieval, from object workflow to natural language processing, from statistical analysis to relational databases. The ideal candidate for our team is a thinker and a doer: someone who loves sophisticated algorithms and mathematical precision, but at the same time enjoys implementing real systems, and is motivated by the prospect of spectacular business returns.
Qualifications:
Proficiency in C or Java is required, and the ideal candidate is an expert in at least one language (such C, C++, Java, or Perl). A BS in computer science (or equivalent experience) is required; graduate degrees, experience building high-availability or large-scale systems, and knowledge of advanced algorithms and data structures are significant plusses.
