Job Description


The challenges business intelligence engineers solve for at Amazon are big and affect millions of customers, sellers, and products around the world. Our path is not always simple, so we are selective about who joins us on this journey. There is a certain kind of person who takes on this role at Amazon – someone who is excited by the idea of creating new products, features, and services from scratch while managing ambiguity and the pace of a company whose ship cycles are measured in weeks, not years.
The Amazon EU Student Programs Team are looking for ambitious students to join us as interns at the heart of our core consumer business! Internships are flexible in length to fit in with your university’s placement scheme.
