Want to work on projects that will change the way Amazon works with our international customers? Like challenging, fast-paced environments and have a passion for languages and other cultures?

The Localization Platform team develops and maintains the tools and systems that deliver localized content to Amazon's customers in many languages around the globe. Our tools and services are used by all of Amazon's businesses, including AWS, Kindle, and of course, the Amazon websites.
