DESCRIPTION

Amazon's Prime Video is a premium on-demand video entertainment service that offers customers the greatest choice in what to watch, from popular Prime Original TV shows (made by Amazon Studios) such as The Grand Tour, Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan and the recent Golden Globe winning The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel to Prime Original Movies like the Oscar-winning Manchester by the Sea and The Salesman. The service also offers TV shows that are exclusively available for Prime members in each country such as American Gods, MR ROBOT and Outlander, and more recently live sport including 37 ATP matches, as well as the US Open and Premier League games exclusively from 2019. Beyond this, the service further differentiates from other video-on-demand services by offering Prime members the opportunity to subscribe to 60+ channels like Discovery, Starz, Eurosport Player and hayu and hundreds of thousands of additional titles to watch instantly with no extra apps to download or long term contracts. Prime Video is at the forefront of the entertainment industry and growing fast - now available in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide – and we work in a dynamic, and exciting environment where innovating on behalf of our customers is at the heart of everything we do. If this sounds exciting to you, please read on.

To help a growing organization quickly deliver more features to Prime Video customers, Prime Video's Builder Tools organization is innovating on behalf of our global software development team consisting of thousands of engineers. We build services and utilities that make developers lives easier and more productive, and that help them deliver at higher levels of quality.

The Builder Tools organization is creating a team that specializes in “Automated Reasoning.” This team will apply deep and cutting-edge Formal Verification and Static Analysis techniques to prove the absence of defects in Prime Video's core systems and device-level code. The tools we build will be mission-critical to the software development and release cycle of many Prime Video engineering organizations, and will represent a huge step forward in the sophistication of our approach to automated Quality Assurance. Your work on this team will help us address a new dimension of scale our business faces as we deliver our devices on an ever-expanding set of client devices.

As a founding member of the core team, you will help apply your engineering skills, alongside Applied Scientists, to concrete problems our product and engineering teams face on a daily basis. You will collaborate with team members to design and deliver enterprise-scale systems that will be used by both internal and external customers. You will help set and continuously evolve a culture of innovation and curiosity that helps us find and solve our customers' biggest problems.

We strive to be a fast-moving, creative, and high-impact organization, but we think it is equally important to be collaborative, supporting, and high-trust in the way we work. We want to come to work every day loving not only what we do, but who we have the privilege of working with. Come help us make all of this a reality.
