Senior Software Development Engineer, Rendering Foundations - ProductUIService
Vancouver, British Columbia, CAN
full-timeSoftware DevelopmentJob Description
Product UI Service (PUIS) is a tier-1 service that provides product detail information to Amazon retail websites and downstream services. We currently serve Search, Dossier widgets on Search and Amazon Page Builder (APB) based Browse pages.
As a Senior SDE on PUIS, you will own and evolve a Tier-1 rendering system that processes hundreds of millions of requests daily and directly shapes the shopping experience for hundreds of millions of customers worldwide.
PUIS is Amazon's centralized, standalone ASIN faceout rendering engine. It decouples product presentation logic from every upstream surface (Search, Homepage, Detail Page, and beyond), enabling consistent, high-quality product displays at scale through a recipe-driven configuration system. You will work at the intersection of distributed systems, rendering infrastructure, and customer-facing UI — solving hard problems in latency, reliability, and extensibility for one of the most critical systems in Amazon's retail stack.
Your strategic leadership informs the next generation of rendering technologies, and enables key Shopping expeirences such as Search to regularly modernize their rendering solutions. You'll connect the dots across multiple teams, and drive incremental multi-year initiatives across the Rendering Foundations to serve highly performant solutions to Store Builders.
Key job responsibilities
* Own the architecture roadmap and strategy across PUIS, drive multi-year initiatives to simplify and modernize the technology stack and the operational posture.
* Design and build new capabilities in PUIS's Java/Coral-based service layer, including product rendering pipelines, recipe configuration management, and AAPI resource integration.
* Own component-level architecture across PUIS — from the ComponentRegistry and KataRenderer to ASINFaceoutConfig and ADP-driven layout selection — driving improvements in extensibility and developer experience for partner teams.
* Raise the bar on PUIS's operational posture: latency, availability, oncall burden reduction, and alarm hygiene for a service where any degradation is immediately customer-visible.
* Collaborate with partner teams across Search, Homepage, Detail Page, NavX, and emerging surfaces (Reforge, AI-native shopping experiences) to ship new product display capabilities with weblab-gated precision.
* Drive the team's test strategy and quality framework as PUIS expands to support the next generation of mShop experiences.
* Mentor and develop emerging talent on the team and represent the team in cross-org technical discussions.
