As an intern, you will be matched to a manager and a mentor. You will have the opportunity to influence the evolution of Amazon technology and lead mission critical projects early in your career. Your design, code, and raw smarts will contribute to solving some of the most complex technical challenges in the areas of distributed systems, data mining, automation, optimisation, scalability, and security – just to name a few.
In
addition to working on an impactful project, you will have the
opportunity to engage with Amazonians for both personal and professional
development, expand your network, and participate in activities with
other interns throughout your internship. No matter the location of your
internship, we give you the tools to own your project and learn in a
real-world setting. Many of our technologies overlap, and you would be
hard pressed to find a team that is not using Amazon Web Services (AWS),
touching the catalogue, or iterating services to better personalise for
customers. We make the impossible, possible.
