At IMDb, you'll be joining a team of seasoned leaders who value execution and decision making at the speed of startups, but with the backing and resources of Amazon.

Data and analytics – there is an almost overwhelming amount of data available and we need to determine which signals are likely to have impact on our clients and how best to retain client interest in our business through data offerings. We're building platforms to automate the generation, validation, and publishing of models that incorporate all available data to predict any measurable signal.
IMDb employees enjoy the benefits of working for Amazon with the autonomy of working on a small, nimble team.
