Job Description

Do you thrive in a fast-paced, innovative environment? Do you have a focus on re-inventing learning solutions instead of replicating what's already been done? If so, the Amazon Stores Learning team is the place for you.

Our vision is to deliver Earth's most customer-centric offline shopping experiences, to re-invent the customer retail experience, not replicate it.
