Job description: DESCRIPTIONAmazon’s Sponsored Products advertising business is one of the fastest growing areas in the company.

Hint: it involves a lot of interesting tech delivered by a great team.The Sponsored Product (SP) Advertiser Growth team owns the primary advertiser-facing targeting, recommendations, and optimization services that are used by +1MM SP advertisers to create, manage and optimize their SP performance. These services include a) The SP Bidder that optimize advertiser bids for every impression opportunity using highly-scalable and low latency online AI/ML models. b) Recommender systems systems that use state of the art Large Language Models (LLMs) and ML algorithms

– Own technical vision and direction: You identify problems and develop solutions; you embrace performance metrics and measurement techniques because they help you assess how well system-related services are running.
– Build and grow your team: You’ll be a key contributor on an engineering team that delivers results.

– Collaborate on product direction: You’ll build and maintain strong relationships between engineering and partner disciplines (Product, User Experience, QA) to ensure that we’re focused on delivering the right product for customers.
– Lead beyond your team: You will be a key part of a small but growing community of engineering leaders who support their teams and contribute to the overall growth of our product development organization.
– You’ll share your experience and technical acumen in order to drive technology decisions across our organization.
– Own your own shop: Our products reach hundreds of millions of customers around the world. We run operations 24x7x365 and the services your team delivers must meet high standards for operational excellence. Our teams own and operate the systems we build.About the team
