Software Dev Engineer II, Amazon Detail Page

Full Job Description

The Detail Page is where Amazon customers decide what to buy. Every day, hundreds of millions of shoppers land on a product page to discover, evaluate and compare products and offers on mobile, desktop and app, and this surface drives the majority of purchase decisions on Amazon. The Detail Page team builds that experience, along with the platform that lets hundreds of partner teams across Amazon ship features to the page safely and quickly. We are reinventing how the page is built, moving to a modern federated architecture and making AI agents a first-class part of how we design, test and ship software.

As an SDE II, you will own the design and delivery of significant features and services on one of Amazon's highest-traffic pages, where every millisecond of latency and every point of availability matters to customers. You will work on real distributed-systems problems at a scale few places can offer, see your code reach customers worldwide within days, and help shape the technical direction of a page that nearly every Amazon shopper sees. If you love building for customers at massive scale and want your work to matter on day one, we would love to hear from you.

Key job responsibilities

• Design, build and own features and services end to end, from requirements and design through launch and operations.
• Build for scale, writing high-quality, well-tested code that is fast, reliable and safe to deploy on a tier-1 customer surface.
• Improve latency, availability and operational health, and take part in on-call, especially through peak events like Prime Day.
• Partner with Product, UX and partner teams across Amazon to turn ambiguous ideas into shipped, measurable customer experiences, and use experiments to prove impact.
• Contribute to the evolution of the Detail Page architecture, and use AI-native tools and agents to speed up development, testing and operations.
• Review designs and code, mentor junior engineers, and help raise the engineering bar across the team.
