About the team
To drive the Prime Video and Prime flywheels through this efficient channel, the Partner Engineering team supports third parties (3Ps) throughout the process of launching and sustaining Prime Video on their living room (LR) devices. This is uniquely challenging as 3P LR devices are more fragmented than mobile devices, benefit less from app store distribution, and require chipset-specific integrations.
