Description
Are you interested in rapidly prototyping new ideas across the entire Ring software stack? Do you enjoy hacking solutions together to prove feasibility? If so, then please read on.
As a Full Stack Prototype Developer, you would be working together with great SW developers, IQ Engineers, architects, and various stakeholders in a fast-paced prototyping team, turning ideas into working demonstrations across different layers of the Ring software stack. When you are successful, your prototypes will validate new product concepts and enable data-driven decisions on what to build next.
In this work, you will touch everything from embedded firmware to cloud services, from camera pipelines to mobile apps. You will hack together solutions that prove an idea works, accepting that speed and learning matter more than perfection. You will work across the full stack, learning what you need along the way.
This work requires someone who is open-minded and isn't afraid of new challenges and the unknown. You need to accept that compromises are a must to get stuff done fast, and that failures are part of the learning process. You should be willing to communicate with other teams to learn how things work, rather than delegating tasks. You like to hack and build things yourself.
In this position, you will work with the latest and greatest technologies across the Ring ecosystem. Proving concepts quickly while learning from failures is the key to success.
In Tampere, we have experts in most areas sitting in the very same office; you can just go and visit them and maybe sketch your idea on paper or whiteboard. The expert network at Amazon Ring is also there to ensure success in your work.
If you feel this is for you, please apply now.
Key job responsibilities
As a Full Stack Prototype Developer your output is working prototypes that prove or disprove ideas, so versatility across the software stack is essential. You need to be able to work at any level - embedded firmware, middleware, backend services, or frontend - whatever is needed to demonstrate the concept. This means you need to be comfortable learning new technologies quickly and making pragmatic decisions.
There is always a new idea to prototype, your task is to figure out how to build it fast - this requires skills to innovate solutions, make smart compromises, and communicate with others. A solution can be a quick firmware hack, a cloud service integration, or a full end-to-end demo; it is essential that whatever you do proves the concept and generates learnings.
If you have experience across multiple layers of the stack - embedded systems, backend services, APIs, databases, frontend, cloud infrastructure - please mention them in your resume. Breadth matters more than depth.
You will work with hardware and prototype devices on Amazon Tampere premises. However we have our flexible culture where eventually results matter.
A day in the life
A new product idea emerges. You hack together a firmware modification, set up a quick backend service, and create a simple UI to demonstrate the concept. The team decides to move forward based on your prototype.
An existing feature needs validation on new hardware. You modify the embedded code, work with the IQ team to understand the constraints, and deliver a working demo in days instead of weeks.
You have a cool idea during lunch at the office. You spend the afternoon hacking it together, it fails, but you learn something valuable that influences the next prototype.
About The Team
The prototyping team moves fast and learns from both successes and failures. We value speed of iteration over perfection, and we're not afraid to throw away code. Team members are located in Tampere and work closely with imaging, firmware, and product teams. Accumulated knowledge across the full stack is massive due to experienced personnel. We have a good spectrum ranging from junior to senior engineers.
Basic Qualifications
Our inclusive culture empowers Amazonians to deliver the best results for our customers. If you have a disability and need a workplace accommodation or adjustment during the application and hiring process, including support for the interview or onboarding process, please visit https://amazon.jobs/content/en/how-we-hire/accommodations for more information.
