About The Position
Build exabyte-scale data processing engines with leading-edge technology. If you want to work with Spark, Java, Scala, Python, Flink, Beam, and AWS services (EMR, EKS, Kinesis, DynamoDB, SQS) — processing and transforming data across Amazon's data lakes — this is the role for you. The BDT team builds the platform that connects millions of businesses to hundreds of millions of customers across Amazon's global marketplaces. We enable native SQL, machine learning, and functional transformations using Apache Spark — executing batch, ML, and streaming workloads over schema'd data in S3, and writing curated datasets to front-end caches (DynamoDB, Redis, ElasticSearch). Our platform lets customers transition seamlessly between Streaming, Batch, Cache, and Analytics to meet demand at Amazon scale. We are a team that relentlessly innovates, keeps customers at the center, and delivers results with velocity while continuously raising the bar.
