Front-End Software Engineer, Consumer Domains

Full-time
Good storytelling starts with great listening. At Audible, that means each role and every project has our audience in mind. Because the same people who design, develop, and deploy our products also happen to use them. To us, that speaks volumes.

This opportunity is for a Front End Engineer for Audible’s Consumer Domains group. We are the team that creates and powers Audible’s applications, components and services for our global listeners across Audible and Amazon web. We are the home for tech talent that wants to grow Audible’s market leading business and build the sites and services (APIs) across desktop and mobile devices.

We are embarking on a mission to reshape the fundamental experiences and delight our customers and drive a strong engineering culture.

Achieving this vision means expanding and strengthening our development process and leveraging new technologies to deliver services and web applications.

ABOUT THE TEAM

We need your help to develop and deliver on this vision.

  • Contribute to the overall front-end architecture and technical strategy within our platform: Envisioning, designing, creating, and supporting our solutions that operate with a high degree of operational excellence

  • Constantly strive to raise the bar on engineering excellence

As a leading creator and provider of premium audio storytelling, we've redefined the ways people access, discover, and share stories. The stories we tell have the ability to transport and transform everyday moments into meaningful experiences and it's our people who make Audible's service possible.
