HireSetu's note

The experience bar is written twice

The internal list asks for 0 to 24 months and says you are currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's at the time you apply, which reads like a campus hiring template. The public basic qualifications ask for 1+ years of non-internship professional software development experience. Aim your application at the middle of that range: a recent graduate with one good internship stands a fair shot, and so does someone a year into a product team.

Java, C/C++ or Python syntax is what the listing asks for. That is a student-level bar, so the resume needs to show code you have actually shipped and can talk through. Applications here are reviewed on a rolling basis, which is a reason to send yours now instead of polishing it for another week.

Put a system at the top of the resume

One project explained end to end beats a list of languages: the schema you designed, the index you chose, what broke when the data grew. The preferred list names distributed, multi-tiered systems, relational databases and optimization maths such as linear and nonlinear programming. That last item is unusual for a junior listing and most applicants will not have it, so a small scheduling or allocation problem you solved with real numbers is worth a line.

Rewards products run on balances, credits and expiry dates, so anything you have built that touches transactions, duplicate-safe writes or counting at volume is relevant, even if it came from a college project.

Keep it to one page. With three or four years of work behind you at most, length is not the constraint.

Ask which slice of rewards the team owns

Rewards covers earning, redeeming, expiry and the ledgers underneath. Ask which of those this team builds and whether the work sits close to the customer or deeper in the platform. Ask how the on-call rotation is split across the group, and how a change gets from your laptop to production.

One more thing to pin down: whether the role reports into Amazon Pay proper or into a shared engineering group serving it. The answer changes who you would sit with and what your first six months look like.
