About the team
We are deeply connected with the idea that live sports events are fundamentally different: there is only one shot at delivering the moment until it is forever lost. Our mission is to make sure that our customers never miss a single moment of the sports they love. To do this we need to deliver best-in-class live sports infrastructure, testing, monitoring, and operations to optimize the delivery of live sports experiences at scale. Our team engineers for speed, quality, availability, and scale. As Prime Video has grown, we've increased the depth and breadth of video products we support, with a corresponding increase in the associated size and complexity of our engineering activity and the load on our services. Our goal is to adapt our architecture to maintain and improve our velocity of delivery for customers in the face of these changes, and for our services to be on and error-free 24/7, especially for high-profile, exclusive content. With AI as a transformative force, we're at an inflection point that enables us to unlock new opportunities in predictive analytics, automated defect analysis and mitigation, and automated operations that were previously beyond our reach.
