Amazon is looking for experienced Software Development Engineers for a technology team within Alexa search. Alexa search is part of our ongoing Alexa Information efforts focused on reinventing information extraction and retrieval for a voice-forward, multi-modal future. We are looking for creative engineers to help design and develop systems that can collect and process data at web scale; create text and data derivatives; and develop novel algorithms that use these derivatives to improve access to and retrieval of these derivatives in the context of Alexa user experiences and other Amazon services.
Successful candidates will build and optimize large scale systems for processing and managing web-scale repositories and will be involved in all stages of text processing and knowledge distillation, from collection, to processing and cleaning, to extraction and verification. In the process, they will collaborate closely with a team of Applied Scientists with expertise in specialized areas such as Natural Language Processing, Text Mining, Search, and Machine Learning.
