FPDS is a secure, reliable, and fast platform for storing and consuming worker data, serving over 2 million employees globally. The team has built AWS-like, 1P data services that power 7,800+ experiences across Amazon.
As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll work on systems handling billions of API calls weekly, serving critical services like Phone Tool, Chime, Slack, facilities badge access, and more. The platform processes 1 trillion employee records annually and serves 5,000+ builder customer teams across various Amazon divisions.
You'll be responsible for designing and implementing scalable solutions, mentoring junior engineers, and collaborating with senior leadership to shape the architectural direction. The role requires strong technical expertise in distributed systems, data structures, and algorithm design.
