Key job responsibilities

Want to join a startup team building new Alexa experiences for hospitality and other out-of-home segments? Customers tell us they love the convenience of Alexa and smart home, and we want to extend those experiences to shared living spaces such as rentals, assisted living and more.

We are looking for a passionate, hard-working, and talented software engineer who has experience building innovative applications that customers love.

You will build new services and experiences from ground up, will be a technical leader and have impact tech design, architecture, and implementation of Alexa features.

In this role, you will take a pragmatic and iterative approach to building software : you will simplify and get things done while experimenting on rapid iterations on the new concepts.

You will be writing code to deliver these pieces of functionality.
