About the team:
Prime Gaming is aimed at making games an entertainment pillar of Amazon Prime and a growth driver for new and existing games. In pursuit of this aim, we create a substantial amplifier for our own first-party games, which in turn contribute content back into Prime and create stand-alone businesses that contribute to long-term FCF. The Prime Gaming goal is to be the world’s best Video Game Subscription program.

About the role:
The successful candidate will possess the ability to complete complex tasks quickly with little to no guidance, react with appropriate urgency to situations that require a quick turnaround, and take effective action without having to know the whole picture. The ideal candidate must be able to work successfully in a team environment and build effective working relationships inside and outside the group – they should be adaptable, a quick learner, and are eager to explore new tasks (hiring events, NHO assistance, recruiting, and team networking opportunities).
