A day in the life
You'll spend your day designing and building backend services, writing and reviewing code, and shepherding changes through launch and into production. You'll collaborate with product managers, upstream route-planning teams, and the Rabbit app team, and review designs and CRs from Speed program teams building into our platform. As an owner of Tier-1 services, you'll take part in on-call — and when high-severity events strike, you'll be central to diagnosing root causes and mitigating impact on the end-to-end driver experience. Expect deep distributed-systems problems, real autonomy, and impact measured in packages delivered.
About the team
The On-Road Execution (ORE) team, part of the TransporterX org within Amazon's Last Mile Technology, owns the backend that manages the execution state of every driver's itinerary — the interface between route planning, station operations, and the Rabbit driver app. Our systems support delivery across a 10+ billion shipment base spanning 21 countries, powering same-day and ultra-fast programs like Quick Commerce and Premium SSD. We're a GenAI-forward team where AI tooling is part of how every engineer works, and we've turned operational excellence into a discipline — resilience-scenario mapping, fast rollback tooling, and load-shedding SOPs that carry us through record peaks. We're modernizing our architecture toward cleaner boundaries while running Tier-1 services at up to 99.95% uptime.
