From Amazon's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Application deadline: Sep 28, 2026
Amazon Ads is building the systems that determine where billions of ad impressions land geographically every day, and we need a Software Development Engineer to lead that work. You'll own the architecture that scores location signals in real time, turns those scores into bid-time features, and connects advertiser targeting to the physical world.
The Geo Targeting team sits at the intersection of ad tech, large-scale data infrastructure, and applied ML. Our systems process billions of bid requests daily, fusing multiple location signal sources to determine where an impression is coming from and how confident we are in that answer. The challenge is that location signals are noisy, often conflicting, and vary in reliability by country, device type, and signal source.
You'll design the systems that make sense of that noise at bid-time latency, at global scale, under evolving privacy constraints. This is a hands-on engineering role where you'll write production code, lead design reviews, mentor engineers, and own systems that directly affect how hundreds of thousands of advertisers reach customers.
We build the location intelligence that powers geographic targeting across Amazon's demand-side platform. Our customers are advertisers who need to reach people in specific places, from a single neighborhood to an entire country. The team is small and technical. Engineers work directly with scientists, product managers, and partner engineering teams across bidding, targeting, and measurement. You will have real ownership and direct influence on what we build and how we build it.
We value clarity in thinking, simplicity in design, and rigor in operations. We are growing, and the people we hire now will define the team's technical culture.
1+ years of designing and developing large-scale, multi-tiered, multi-threaded, embedded or distributed software applications, tools, systems, and services using: C#, C++, Java, or Perl experience
