The Audio + Podcast Advertising program supports the growth of Amazon Music Free, Wondery, ART19, Twitch, and Alexa. We started our Audio advertising program in 2021 with a focus on Streaming Audio and Podcasts. Our vision is to build a world class audio advertising program and deliver more than $1B in revenue by 2030.
We're building a core engineering team in New York to support all new Audio + Podcast Advertising programs

We're looking for passionate, team-oriented, and self-driven software builders to design and develop delightful user experiences for audio advertisers, publishers and listeners. This is a unique opportunity and time to get in early and deliver significant portions of the technical roadmap.
Key job responsibilities

- You take the lead in identifying and solving web app/architecture deficiencies or areas where your team's software bottlenecks the innovation of other teams

You help your team deliver higher quality software faster (or fail faster to get to the right solution).
- You are able to communicate your ideas effectively to achieve the right outcome for your team and customer.
- You harmonize discordant views and lead the resolution of contentious issues (build consensus).
- You lead design reviews for your team and actively participate in design reviews of related software or other team software at your location.
- Your code, design, and implementation decisions set a great example to others and demonstrate best practices.
- You provide insightful code reviews and take ownership of outcome.
- You actively participate in the hiring process as well as mentor others
About the team
Modern communication tools are democratizing story telling and the audio industry is shifting to digital. We build solutions providing programmatic and deal-based advertising access to streaming audio and podcasts. Our supply includes Amazon Music Free streaming audio listening, Alexa News, 3P listening on Alexa (e.g

iHeart and Spotify), 1P podcasts (Owned and Operated by Wondery), 2P podcasts hosted by ART19 (Amazon's Hosting Provider), as well as 3P podcasts hosted elsewhere.

Sourced by ZipRecruiter

Amazon.com, Inc., commonly known as Amazon, is an American multinational technology company. It was founded by Jeff Bezos in 1994 and initially started as an online marketplace for books. Since then, Amazon has expanded its operations and become one of the largest e-commerce companies in the world. Amazon's primary business is its online retail platform, where customers can purchase a vast array of products, including electronics, clothing, books, home goods, and much more. The company offers a convenient and user-friendly shopping experience, with features such as fast shipping, customer reviews, and personalized recommendations. In addition to its e-commerce platform, Amazon has diversified its business into various other areas. One of its notable ventures is Amazon Web Services (AWS), a comprehensive cloud computing platform that provides services such as storage, compute power, and database management to individuals and businesses. AWS has become a leader in the cloud computing industry, powering many websites and applications worldwide. Amazon has also developed its own consumer electronics, including the popular Amazon Kindle e-reader, Fire tablets, Fire TV streaming devices, and the Alexa-powered Echo smart speakers. The Alexa voice assistant, integrated into these devices, allows users to interact with their devices using voice commands, perform tasks, and access information. Furthermore, Amazon has expanded into media and entertainment. It operates Prime Video, a streaming service that offers a wide range of movies, TV shows, and original content. Amazon Music provides a platform for streaming and purchasing digital music, while Audible offers audiobooks and other audio content.
