Countries across the globe maintain lists of entities known to be related to acts of terrorism, drug trafficking, money laundering or other illegal activities. Conducting business with them is highly prohibited; failure to comply may end up in fines of hundreds of millions of dollars, reputational harm or even termination of activity.

Denied Party Screening group is Amazon’s main defense mechanism against unwillingly conducting business with such sanctioned entities. We build highly-scalable, low-latency, Machine Learning based systems and algorithms which are integrated in critical areas of business for Amazon and used to detect and prevent prohibited transactions. Our goal is to ensure that every transaction happening inside Amazon is compliant with strict governmental regulations.

We are looking for Software Development Engineers (SDEs) with strong analytical and problem-solving skills, to join us and participate in the full development life-cycle of this mission critical system that screens customers at every point of interaction with Amazon and its various businesses and products.

As an SDE in our team you will have the opportunity to use cutting edge technologies to develop large-scale, high-availability, low-latency distributed systems, based on Cloud Computing and Machine Learning.

As we are building towards achieving our vision, you will have many opportunities to learn new stuff and develop new skills as you work with your teammates to build and innovate.
