Software Development Engineer, Alexa Endpoint Experiences
This position is for the Echo Show Home team which owns the face of the device through its home screen, one of the most monetized surfaces on EFD. The Home screen coupled with the Alexa+ agent (proactive and persistent content in an ambient state) is the springboard for all of the interaction points from Echo Show devices.
Successful candidates will be able to lead by example, balancing their technical depth with customer‑focused acumen to deliver products that delight our customers.
As a software engineer in the Alexa Devices team, you will help drive innovation by developing features that present innovative speech‑backed visuals on Echo Show, Echo Spot, and similar screened Alexa devices. You will be responsible for developing and maintaining new systems, partnering with other Amazon and third‑party services and device teams as required. You will ensure that Alexa almost never drops her end of the conversation, delivering services that respond with minimal latency at Amazon scale. You may work on device frameworks, web services, APIs, large‑scale data infrastructure, and more.

The Alexa Echo Show Composable Experience Platform team owns the device and cloud‑side stacks for the application that manages the visual runtime experience on Echo Show devices.
