Job description

DESCRIPTION

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is changing the way we interact with the Internet. The tools and services AWS provides enable everyone from Netflix to your next-door-neighbor to take advantage of massively scalable computing power. We are seeking a talented and passionate UX Designer to join our growing team, with a primary focus on the Amazon Kinesis console. You will have a visible impact on our business as you shape the way customer interact with us and the mechanisms we use to respond to them. You will work collaboratively with engineers, product managers, executives, and other designers throughout the strategy, design, and development lifecycle.

We are seeking a talented and passionate UX Designer to join our growing team, with a primary focus on the Amazon Kinesis consoles. You will have a visible impact on our business as you shape the way customer interact with us and the mechanisms we use to respond to them. You will work collaboratively with engineers, product managers, executives, and other designers throughout the strategy, design, and development lifecycle.

Amazon Kinesis powers many of the real-time technologies you use and see today. And we do this at a colossal scale; worldwide Kinesis works with billions of events and petabytes of data each day in support of many thousands of customers running mission-critical real-time applications. Customers like Major League Baseball (MLBAM) are using Kinesis to ingest game data, analyze it, and deliver the insights to viewers as they happen. Similarly, Sonos is using Kinesis to collect and analyze real-time data from millions of devices to provide better experiences to their customers. They choose Kinesis because the fully managed service makes real-time data ingestion, processing, and delivery easy, all at a low cost. As a result of these benefits customers of every size are moving quickly from batch to real-time processing. At the same time, Kinesis continues to push the technical boundaries of real-time processing and we are growing our team to support these game changing innovations.

As a member of our Palo Alto design team you will contribute to the product roadmap, drive future concepts, and deliver improvements for Amazon Kinesis. Collaboration and product ownership is essential, requiring you to be a great communicator, and successfully present and align with a variety of stakeholders. Additionally, you must be able to work with ambiguity and deliver designs that elevate the AWS customer experience as a whole.
