Sr Front-End Engineer, Authentication Experience

We are AuthX, Authentication eXperience. We own Amazon's account creation and sign-in experiences. Every aspect of Amazon depends on our systems to know who the customer is. In order to shop, stream, or consume any of Amazon's offerings, the customer comes through us first. Whether you're watching The Expanse, shopping for groceries, or chatting with Alexa, you've crossed paths with our systems. A smooth transition is critical for authentication. If there's friction in the process, we risk losing that customer. If it's delightful and intuitive, we gift those new customers with an exceptional impression of Amazon. How can you help innovate on the experience of authenticating?

We value engineers with diverse experiences. You'll contribute your unique perspective to drive innovation in one of the most high-profile customer experiences within Amazon. As a Senior Front-End Engineer, you will work on projects that leverage your strengths while also providing you the opportunity to learn something new.

We collaborate across disciplines. You will have the opportunity to work closely with product managers, UX designers and researchers, and business intelligence engineers to innovate, measure, analyze and refine the experiences we deliver to millions of customers across the planet on a daily basis. Our roles are all well defined, but we encourage individuals to cross boundaries and learn from each other.

Our team puts a high value on work-life balance. It isn't about how many hours you spend at home or at work; it's about the flow you establish that brings energy to both parts of your life. We believe striking the right balance between your personal and professional life is critical to life-long happiness and fulfillment. We offer flexibility in working hours and encourage you to find your own balance between your work and personal lives.
