Description For Software Development Engineer II, Sort Tech

Sort Tech at Amazon is at the forefront of building revolutionary technologies that power the company's worldwide transportation network. As a Software Development Engineer II in the Core Load team, you'll be instrumental in developing systems that enable the efficient movement of packages across Amazon's vast network of fulfillment centers, sort centers, and delivery stations.

The role involves building highly scalable distributed systems that process millions of packages daily, ensuring Amazon meets its customer delivery promises. You'll work on critical initiatives that support the rapid evolution and growth of the transportation network, solving some of the most challenging problems in logistics at an unprecedented scale.

The Core Load team specifically focuses on all loading processes within dock operations, serving as the crucial interface between in-building operations and dock loading operations. Your work will directly impact the efficiency of Amazon's logistics network by decomposing network-level distribution plans into granular, site-level Load/Unload plans.

This is an exceptional opportunity for engineers who are passionate about large-scale systems and want to make a tangible impact. You'll be working with cutting-edge technologies in a microservice architecture, collaborating with some of the best engineers in the industry, and solving complex challenges in large-scale computing.

The role offers the chance to work on real-world problems that directly affect millions of customers while building systems that operate at "Amazon Scale." You'll be part of an agile team that values ownership, innovation, and continuous improvement, working in an environment that encourages both technical excellence and operational efficiency.

If you're excited about building systems that push the boundaries of what's possible in logistics and transportation, and want to be part of a team that's revolutionizing how packages move across the globe, this role offers the perfect blend of technical challenge and real-world impact.
