Sr.SoftwareEngineer,AlexaEndpoints

Are you a Software Engineer who thrives on solving ambiguous, cross-cutting technical problems at scale? Are you looking to own the architecture and developer experience of a mobile platform used by tens of millions of customers worldwide? We're building the next generation of the Alexa Mobile App and are looking for a Senior SDE to lead the design, architecture, and delivery of foundational Android platform capabilities. In this role, you won't just write features — you'll define the technical direction for how features get built. You'll own critical platform systems (build tooling, OS integration, performance infrastructure), drive architectural decisions across multiple teams, and raise the engineering bar through mechanisms, mentorship, and technical standards. You'll operate with significant autonomy, decompose complex problems into actionable plans, and influence roadmaps beyond your immediate team to ensure the platform scales with our device portfolio. Key job responsibilities - Own the technical vision and architecture for Android platform systems — build/test infrastructure, OS integration layers, and shared frameworks - Lead design reviews, drive architectural decisions, and document trade-offs for systems that span multiple teams - Mentor and raise the bar through code reviews, design guidance, and engineering standards - Identify and resolve systemic technical debt, performance bottlenecks, and developer experience gaps proactively - Partner with product, TPMs, and peer tech leads to align platform investments with device launch timelines - Define and enforce engineering best practices: instrumentation, testing strategy, CI/CD pipeline health - Deliver independently on ambiguous, multi-quarter initiatives with minimal direction A day in the life You start by reviewing a teammate's design doc and sharpening the architecture. Then you're hands-on — profiling a startup regression, shipping a fix with instrumentation. After lunch, you lead a cross-team disc
