 "Amazon has problems at the intersection of business and technology. The tech problems are hard: how do you generate relevant product recommendations for millions of customers in milliseconds each? At the same time, there's a big business component to every project you have to build--features that are relevant to real users and help them shop more effectively. Engineers play a big role in both the technology and business direction, frequently getting to drive project ideas they invented." --Blake, Software Development Manager
