IMS serves teams across the Mergers & Acquisitions (M&A) ecosystem, including Corporate Development, Business Development, Accounting, Tax, Legal, and Treasury.\nWhen someone needs to know what a holding is worth today, how much of a warrant Amazon has earned through its commercial deals, or simply what Amazon owns and what it's worth, IMS is where they get the answer. IMS data feeds directly into Amazon's financial statements and supports real-time investment decisions, so accuracy and timeliness are non-negotiable. A core part of this role is keeping IMS accurate, trustworthy, and current - continuously ingesting new deals and milestones, and integrating and regularly reconciling with other internal and external systems (Amazon Lantern, Accounting, Tax, Legal, Treasury, Factset).\nWe are a small, high-ownership technical team with a unique organizational structure: we sit within a larger finance team. This is a deliberate decision to embed technical expertise directly alongside finance partners, enabling rapid collaboration, troubleshooting, and delivery. As a result, this role requires close, effective collaboration and communication with both technical colleagues and non-technical stakeholders and team members. The role indexes high on visibility, ownership, and business acumen.\nYou will manage a team of 2 to 4 software developers - setting technical direction, unblocking the team, conducting code reviews, and raising the bar on engineering quality. You will design and build the services, data pipelines, and web application that power IMS, and you will own the programs that deliver them. That means working directly with stakeholders and leaders across the M&A ecosystem, translating their needs into clear requirements, and driving the work through to reliable, compliant outcomes. You will drive the IMS roadmap end-to-end, prioritizing work, managing stakeholder expectations, and balancing near-term operational needs with longer-term platform investments. \nTech stack: a serverless, event-driven backend on AWS (Python), a PostgreSQL database, a React web application, and an AI assistant built on Amazon Bedrock - all deployed through infrastructure-as-code and Amazon's internal CI/CD, with AI-assisted development tools used daily.\nKey job responsibilities\nOwn the architecture and the hardest technical problems in IMS, including the services and APIs that serve investment and warrant data, the quarterly data pipelines that carry positions from one quarter to the next, and the checks that catch when IMS and upstream finance systems disagree.\nOwn the data model and the financial calculations (such as internal rate of return, unrealized value, and warrant vesting progress), and write the code and tests that the rest of the team builds on.\nBuild the React web application that business users work in every day, and own the Amazon Bedrock-based AI assistant that lets them ask questions about the portfolio in plain language.\nWork directly with leaders across the M&A ecosystem to turn open-ended requests into concrete requirements, sequence the work, manage dependencies, and deliver each program. You own the outcome, not just your part of it.\nRun the deadline-bound work the team cannot miss, including the quarterly close.\nLead integrations with partner data teams across multiple systems.\nDefine infrastructure as code with AWS CDK, raise the bar in code and design reviews, and keep stakeholders and engineers aligned as work progresses. About the team Corporate Development Finance (CDF) is a cross-functional team that serves as the finance partner to Amazon’s corporate venture capital funds (the Industrial Innovation Fund, the Alexa Fund, and the Climate Pledge Fund), to Amazon’s warrant program, and to portfolio management across Amazon’s global investment and warrant portfolio. The team comprises finance professionals, program managers, and technical roles building the infrastructure to support a growing and increasingly complex portfolio.\nBasic qualifications\n- 5+ years of non-internship professional software development experience\n- Experience as a mentor, tech lead or leading an engineering team\n- 5+ years of programming with at least one software programming language experience\n- 5+ years of leading design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience\nPreferred qualifications\n- 5+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience\n- Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent\nThe base salary range for this position is listed below. Your Amazon package will include sign-on payments and restricted stock units (RSUs). Final compensation will be determined based on factors including experience, qualifications, and location. Amazon also offers comprehensive benefits including health insurance (medical, dental, vision, prescription, Basic Life & AD&D insurance and option for Supplemental life plans, EAP, Mental Health Support, Medical Advice Line, Flexible Spending Accounts, Adoption and Surrogacy Reimbursement coverage), 401(k) matching, paid time off, and parental leave.
