Amazon Music is focused on building a personalized, curated, and seamless music experience. We want to help our customers discover up-and-coming artists while giving them access to their favorite established musicians. The experiences span mobile apps, web player, voice-forward audio engagement on mobile and Echo devices, and automotive. Amazon Music offerings are available in countries around the world, and our applications support our mission of delivering music to customers in new and exciting ways that enhance their day-to-day lives.
The Automotive group within Amazon Music, a multidisciplinary team comprising product management, mobile and back-end engineering, and design and business development, drives initiatives to make Amazon Music experience more accessible and engaging in the car. It remains the most popular place to access music, maintaining a 40% share of all listening activity. Our initiatives include enhancing the Amazon Music experience on key automotive platforms (Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and other emerging platforms), working directly with select car manufacturers to build an embedded Amazon Music experience using our SDK, improving our mobile apps and content experiences to be tailored to the car, collaborating with Alexa and Echo Auto teams to create richer music experiences, and other strategic investments to make Amazon Music a delightful experience on the road.
As the engineering leader, you will hire and develop a team of iOS, Android and full-stack engineers. In collaboration with product management, design and business development, your team will create experiences that span across all form factors including mobile, web, and living room devices, across voice and visual user interfaces, by using the latest and greatest AWS technologies to solve the customer and business problem most optimally. You are a seasoned technical leader that has worked on fostering a fast moving culture of experimentation. You love identifying and solving dysfunctionalities when they occur, but are proactive at creating scalable mechanisms to prevent them for your teams. You grow your leaders by delegating big ambiguous problem spaces for them to own, but are not afraid to roll up your sleeves to review code and design. You love troubleshoot customer issues and the buck stops with you. You regularly communicate the progress and vision to the senior executive team and the wider organization. You are the champion of your teams but you continuously raise the bar.
Come innovate with the Amazon Music team!
