Alexa Speech is building the future of voice enabled interactions for our customers not only in Echo family, but also in 3rd party devices and applications. We believe voice is the most natural user interface for interacting with technology across many domains, so we are inventing the future.

The Role:
We are looking for an experienced Data Engineer (DE) to join our team for development of our data frameworks and have direct impact on how our customers interact with Alexa.
