“Amazon has recently opened up a new engineering office in Bucharest, Romania. This office is already the home of several engineering teams that are working on the operating systems, the virtualization, and networking technologies that power AWS. The teams provide key pieces of the technical foundation that AWS and Amazon are built on. We constantly innovate cloud computing technologies to enhance AWS’s competitiveness and the experience of our customers,” the company said on its recruitment website.
The retailer seeks to hire software developers, translators and human resources specialists.
Amazon will hire at least 1,300 people at its new center in Bucharest. It recently opened a Development and Technology Center in Iasi, northeastern Romania, creating 400 permanent jobs adding to the 600 jobs it had already created in the country.
Since 2005, Amazon invested around EUR40 million in Romania.
