Are you inspired to work with a team than launches products with direct and massive impact on Amazon’s customers? Are you excited to join one of the newest and most exciting AWS services?

Amazon Connect is a highly disruptive cloud-based contact center that enables businesses to deliver engaging, dynamic, and personal customer service experiences. Amazon Connect is the result of the ten years of development that went into building the tools Amazon uses to provide its award-winning customer service at massive scale and launching it as a publicly available AWS service. With Amazon Connect, you can create your own cloud-based contact center and be taking calls in minutes. Amazon Connect leverages the power of Artificial Intelligence and the large ecosystem of AWS services such as Amazon Lex, Amazon Polly, AWS Lambda, Amazon S3 and Amazon Kinesis to provide a truly frustration free, easy-to-use, extensible, and natural customer experience.

In this team, you will be working on a new service platform to accelerate launching new analytics data and functions for Amazon Connect features with comprehensive yet flexible visualization and tools. You will be working closely with both product management and engineering leadership comprising principal engineers and senior engineering peers. You’ll get to work on open-source and AWS technologies, shepherd software engineers and collaborate across different engineering teams. We have a good working culture of learning and having fun working together towards a common goal of operational engineering excellence and working backwards from our customers.
