  Second-level manager leading the groups which develop the highest-traffic backend services at Amazon's. We expose data about stuff-for-sale to websites and other product-hungry clients like Amazon Web Services. Often our services get called hundreds of times to render a single Amazon.com web page. This data is by no means static -- certain attributes like inventory ("Only 10 left in stock - order now!") may change hundreds of times per second on tens of millions of items. The scale of updates and reads is phenomenal.
