The Alexa Engine integrates Alexa technologies that go into Amazon and third-party devices; it is the underlying component for Alexa that allows other teams to build experiences. We build one set of common APIs for Amazon and third party devices and developers. We work across all Alexa teams to make sure that Alexa is always ready to respond to your requests in an accurate and timely manner. We also serve as a center of excellence for the Alexa organization. Since the Alexa Engine takes in all Alexa traffic, we manage and solve large-scale challenges like service scalability and availability. As we integrate so many different Alexa technology components, our team members have the opportunity to be introduced to many different technologies quickly in a hands-on way. Our Alexa Language Technologies team works on services that interact with the engine, like Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), Language Understanding Systems, and Text to Speech.I am looking for Software Development Engineers and Managers, Support Engineers, System Engineers, Technical Program Managers, and technical leaders to join our team.

When Jeff Bezos had the first spark of inspiration for the digital online marketplace that became Amazon, it started with selling and shipping books out of his garage. Today, our physical media retail category includes not only books, but music, movies, games and software products.We’re still innovating around how people acquire and consume media products. The marketplace continues to evolve and we are leading much of that change by developing new experiences for customers to buy, sell, rent, trade and download media of all types.
