Quality Assurance Engineer II

READY TO DO SOMETHING BIG?

How would you build the next generation of mission critical systems and services that power the ability to send, store and manage billions of products across the globe on behalf of our selling partners?

Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) is the Amazon service for world-wide sellers that offers access to Amazon s vast distribution network as a service. Similar to how AWS provides infrastructure as a service, FBA allows sellers to only pay for what they use, creating a seamless experience to leverage our world-class infrastructure. Sellers, from Fortune 50 companies to hundreds of thousands of small businesses and entrepreneurs, in 135 countries worldwide, rely upon our world-leading technology to grow and thrive on Amazon s Marketplaces.

Our team is working to solve what is arguably the most difficult eCommerce problem that exists today: building sophisticated, scalable technology to effectively simplify the complexity of connecting millions of FBA sellers with hundreds of millions of consumers who buy their products. Even small improvements result in millions of dollars in savings for our sellers and customers. Given the importance of small and medium sized businesses, these savings are what helps drive the global economy.

Specifically, the Send to Amazon - STA Platforms (STAP) team is part of the broader Inbound Workflows and Platforms organization. The STAP team owns the user interface platform that enables sellers to inbound products to Amazon. As the owners of this platform, the STAP engineering team is responsible for the codebase, development practices, CI/CD pipelines, and providing on-call support. The team is also accountable for the inbounding workflow built on this platform, which supports a wide range of marketplaces categorized as "Worldwide" (WW). This encompasses the end-to-end engineering and quality assurance for the seller-facing UI on Seller Central. Additionally, the STAP team owns various services that they have inherited over time from other teams. The QA team within STAP specifically owns manual feature and regression testing across multiple initiatives, both within the inbound workflows organization and beyond.

We operate as a startup within Amazon, providing our team great flexibility in product and technology direction. Come, join us and build the future!
