Design Technologist, Prime Video

Job :  |  Services LLC

Are you interested in shaping the future of entertainment? Do you want to define the next generation of how and what Amazon customers are watching? Prime Video is changing the way people watch movies and TV. From one service, we’re delivering versatile ways to watch hundreds of thousands of movies, TV series, and live events on the web, mobile, and TV.

Our service is available in more than 200 territories globally, and we’re just getting started.

Working closely with business and technology partners, we use research, design, and prototyping to guide early product development, bring clarity to engineering goals, and develop a customer‑centric point of view. This is where you come in.

Your role will be all about proving, advancing, and evolving forward‑looking UX concepts through prototyping and hands‑on product work. You'll work alongside other design technologists to bring design ideas (interactions, visuals, motion) to life.

• Build high‑quality, functional prototypes that convey and advance the vision of future products.
• Collaborate with design leadership and key stakeholders throughout the product lifecycle.
• Work alongside designers, researchers, PMs, and engineers to drive concepts from idea to implementation.
• Advance design thinking by leveraging platform expertise (web, mobile, TV).

You will create prototypes across the Prime Video customer journey, from helping customers discover their favorite content to designing new playback experiences, including X‑Ray, live sports, and advertising. Prototypes will be built for TV, mobile, and web using frontend technologies such as HTML/CSS/JS, React.js, Redux and Motion.js, and AWS Bedrock to envision Gen AI powered experiences.

Our team is scrappy yet detail‑oriented, knowing when to build quickly versus diving into the details to produce higher fidelity prototypes. We bring our own design vision and support design and engineering partners to ship faster, and work closely with UX researchers to create new experiences that customers test and provide feedback on. Prototypes are demoed to senior leadership to showcase the future of Prime Video.

• 1+ years of front‑end technologist, engineer, or UX prototyper experience.
• Available online portfolio with coding samples in front‑end programming languages.
• Experience with web, mobile web, or mobile app front‑end development.
• Knowledge of API frameworks, JavaScript/Node.js, HTML/CSS, responsive/adaptive design, Python, Git, and AWS services (EC2, Lambda, S3, DynamoDB, SQS).
