About the team

The Event Warehousing (EW) team powers Amazon Advertising's performance measurement infrastructure through four critical services. Our Consolidated Event Store (CES) processes trillions of advertising traffic events monthly, providing sub-second data access through resilient APIs. The Identity Resolution Service (IRS) computes and maintains identity signals enabling precise measurement across the advertising ecosystem. The Conversion Relevance Service (CRS) determines which campaigns potentially influenced conversion events.

Together, these services form a petabyte-scale infrastructure that delivers accurate measurement for Amazon's advertising platform. We're looking for a strong Software Development Manager to lead this team of experienced engineers in Seattle.
