Job 140681: Sr. Software Development Engineer
JOB DESCRIPTION:
CreateSpace innovates to provide tools and services so everyone can easily create and profitably publish books, music, and video to a worldwide audience. Once a customer places an order, CreateSpace manufactures the product on-demand, removing the need for stocks of inventory, keeping costs down for the author or artist, and increasing return. While publishing was once the privilege of a select few, self-publishing is now changing how ideas reach people.

As a Software Development Engineer you will be responsible for designing, implementing, testing, and deploying new features. Your ultimate goal will be to deliver software that significantly lowers the barrier for entry into independently publishing books. Successful candidates will be strong leaders who can prioritize well, communicate clearly, and have a consistent track record of delivery. ZME requires creative engineering balanced with high quality and customer focus.
ZME, a division of A2Z Development Center, Inc. is part of the Amazon.com, Inc. group of companies.
BASIC QUALIFICIATIONS:
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering or related technical discipline
• 7+ years of relevant engineering experience

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:
• A deep understanding of software development in a team and a track record of shipping high quality software on time
