Description
DESCRIPTION
Interested in Amazon Echo? Want to create products that will reach more than 100 million customers? Come join a close-knit team that's evolving the definition of Alexa, Amazon's virtual assistant.
Amazon Alexa started with the vision of delivering the Star Trek computer to our customers.Today, customers can already ask Alexa to control their smart homes, TVs, play music, and get information, news, weather, and more using just their voice.
We are now augmenting Alexa's voice-forward interaction model with a range of experiences such as rich animated visuals, video, and immersive audio.
We're creating the future of multi-modal interaction - what you see on devices today is just the beginning - it's still Day 1.
Our team creates the UI framework that runs on all Alexa-enabled devices with screens, Alexa Presentation Language.APL includes a portable rendering engine, tools, content, and responsive templates that developers and device makers can use to author and render multi-modal experiences.
Our software powers those experiences on our Echo family of devices, Fire Tablets, Amazon Fire TV, and many more. Our Alexa Skills Kit developer tools and Alexa Presentation Language APIs allow anyone to write applications for our devices.We're committed to open source software, and are working to build a community around both our software stack and tools.
You've found the right team if you are a passionate software engineer with experience building innovative applications that customers love.
You will join a organization that's growing in Seattle and Vancouver, Canada and have an enormous opportunity to make an impact on the design, architecture, and implementation of cutting edge products used every day, by people you know.
We're working hard, having fun, and making history; come join usKey job responsibilities
