Got tech skills? Looking for a job? Amazon Vancouver is currently in the process of hiring as many as 1,000 employees for its Canadian development centre in downtown Vancouver.
It was announced last fall that Amazon will open a 91,000 square foot office at the under construction $750-million, 22-storey TELUS Garden office tower, with the possibility to expand to 156,000 square feet.
TELUS Garden will be complete in late-2015: the expected move-in period for Amazon Vancouver. Between 750 to 1,000 people will be employed at the office.
In addition to the great, centralized, urban working space and environment, the company is attempting to lure talent from both Vancouver and across the world with the city’s renowned quality of living and the immense possibilities of working with this Amazon office: “Whether you’re interested in building a great browser, pushing the limits of high scale cloud computing or delivering the best online shopping experience, you will find a challenging and rewarding career at Amazon Vancouver.”
Vancouver has been internationally known for its highly-trained tech talent and is within very close range of Amazon’s headquarters in Seattle. The Vancouver office is hiring employees within the following fields and interests:
- Software Development
- Project/Program/Product Management (Technical)
- Operations, IT & Support Engineering
- Project/Program/Product Management (Non-Technical)
- Systems, Quality and Security Engineering
- Database Administration
- Research Science
