Are you looking for an opportunity to build a highly available, large scale, enterprise-wide software solution? Does it excite you to find patterns and build generic, composable software solutions to solve complex problems? Are you looking for inventing newer and simpler ways of building solutions? If so, we are looking for you to fill a challenging position in Amazon Finance Automation Receivables Technology team.
The FinAuto Receivables Tech team strives to consistently evolve and anticipate emerging business needs that drive scale and efficiency for customers, Amazon, and Global Accounts Receivable (GAR).

Strong communication skills and a desire to tackle complex problems that emerge from driving a large business at Amazon are also a must.
As a norm, Amazon Senior Software Development Engineers have industry-leading technical abilities. They recognize and adopt best practices in software engineering: design, testing, version control, documentation, build, deployment, and operations. They solve problems at their root, stepping back to understand the broader context. They build flexible systems without over-engineering and choose simple, straightforward solutions over more complex ones. They understand a broad range of data structures and algorithms and know how, when and when not to use them; recognize and use design patterns to solve business problems. They understand how operating systems work, perform and scale.
