Software Development Engineer II, Cross Border Seller Programs

Description

Are you passionate about building software that makes a meaningful difference for millions of customers? We are looking for a Software Development Engineer II to join our team at Amazon, where you will design, build, and operate systems that solve real problems at remarkable scale. In this role, you will own features end-to-end—from understanding customer needs through design, implementation, testing, deployment, and operations. You will write high-quality, maintainable code and collaborate with talented engineers to deliver solutions that are reliable, performant, and built to last. If you are a self-starter who thrives on turning ambiguous problems into clean, simple designs, we want to hear from you.

Key job responsibilities
- Design and implement software solutions across the full development lifecycle, including scoping, architecture, coding, testing, deployment, and ongoing operations, ensuring high-quality and maintainable outcomes.
- Collaborate with customers, stakeholders, and cross-functional peers to understand business and customer needs, translating requirements into well-structured technical designs that balance scalability, performance, and security.
- Identify and resolve root causes of operational issues, driving permanent fixes and continuously improving your team's operational health and software reliability.
- Mentor and coach fellow engineers through code reviews and knowledge sharing, raising the overall quality bar and helping new team members ramp up effectively.
- Evaluate modern tools and approaches—including generative AI capabilities—to improve development productivity, code quality, and the overall customer experience.

A day in the life
Your morning might start with a design discussion, whiteboarding a new feature with your team and thinking through tradeoffs around scalability and maintainability. After lunch, you could be deep in code—writing, reviewing, or pairing with a teammate on a tricky problem. Later, you might investigate an operational metric that looks off, trace it to its root cause, and implement a fix. Throughout it all, you will be learning, asking questions, and sharing what you know with the engineers around you.

About the team
Our team is focused on building software that customers depend on every day. We value clean design, operational rigor, and a collaborative environment where every engineer's perspective is heard. We invest in each other's growth through mentorship, thoughtful code reviews, and open technical dialogue. If you are looking for a team where your contributions have visible impact and where you can grow alongside engineers who care deeply about their craft, we would love to have you join us.
