This is great! I am close to being able to begin work on my Amazon TV app. I'll let you know how it goes. There is a lot to Amazon, but I'm excited about their products.

I was an SDE 2 and spent a little over a year there, I was relocated by Amazon to Europe and I advice everyone to test the waters but keep an eye out for a better company. Amazon isn't it. I have rejected offers from Meta, Microsoft and Atlassian and I have worked for Novell, IBM, Amazon, ING, SwissRe and now Oracle.
