Description

Amazon Advertising’s Marketing Insights Technology (MINT) team is looking for a motivated and experienced software development engineer to develop a platform which will change the way we create, automate and distribute advertising insights to our customers. The MINT team’s vision is to build products and services that surface recommendations and insights, and tools that drive scale through automation. We categorize our products under two broad categories based on their function and customers (1) Insights and recommendations creation (I&R), (2) Insights scaling and enablement.

Our team within MINT allows account teams to quickly find the right insights to include in their upcoming advertiser presentations and conversations to convince the advertiser to take specific actions. We do this by delivering the search & discovery experience for relevant recommendations & insights at the right moment in time via the most appropriate channel. We also expose Visualization APIs that enable Ads engineering teams to generate customized content and visualizations for use in their own applications. Additionally, we allow Content Owners to automate and customize content at scale by compiling insights from disparate data sources, and using standardized approved templates to reduce errors or inadvertent data sharing. Lastly, we are working to unify the content publishing workflows and including mechanisms for content bar raising so that content owners can easily adhere to Ads guidelines and publish high quality content.
