Job description

from Amazon careers
As a Senior Software Engineer, you will be a core member of a software team developing Ring's next generation of camera-centric devices. While experience with embedded systems is valuable, we're looking for engineers passionate about building IoT products who are eager to work close to the hardware.

The ideal candidate is responsive, flexible, and thrives in an open collaborative peer environment. You'll obsess over device performance—whether that's battery life, boot time, system latency, or other critical KPIs.
You'll add significant new features and integrate with new hardware and software services.

Key job responsibilities
You will be responsible for managing your personal backlog, prioritising issues and diving deep into technical issues.

A day in the life
The ideal candidate:
- Enjoys working side-by-side with partners, colleagues, and teams on challenging problems
- Is highly effective and thrives in a dynamic environment with multiple, changing priorities
- Knows what is important when shipping products to customers and has been through the process from start to finish
- Is comfortable with proactive outward communication and technical leadership and never shies away from a challenge

About the team
The team are responsible for developing and delivering firmware for Ring's camera-centric devices - new products, supporting existing devices, and adding new features. We're a large team with sites in Europe and Asia as well as stakeholders in the US.
