Software Dev Engineer II, Amazon Ads - Publisher Technology

Amazon is continuing to invest in its Advertising business to tap into the growing online advertising market. The Publisher Technologies (PubTech) team builds and operates extensible services that empower 1P Publishers to improve the monetization of their customer experiences, along with the experiences themselves. We bias toward standards-based and flexible designs that allow Publishers the ability to invent on top of our solutions and to interoperate well with other advertising technology providers; both internal and external.

The PubTech Data, Insights, and Analytics team enables faster data-driven decision making for Publishers and Monetization teams by providing them with near real time data, data management tools, actionable insights, and an easy-to-use reporting experience. Our data products provide Publishers and Monetization teams with the capabilities necessary to better monetize their supply.

We are looking to hire a software engineer to join us in building out the PubTech Observability and Troubleshooting technology from its infancy. This technology will empower teams to better understand what is happening in their systems, why it is happening, and where it is happening. Observability infers the internal state of the systems based on their external outputs. This is a unique opportunity with greenfield development to influence the vision, capabilities, and architecture.
