The standing desk helps with posture. It also helps with this. 🎧🎵 Some of the best ideas and the best moments come from people who bring their whole selves to work. We think that's worth celebrating. This is what working hard, having fun, and making history looks like, somehow still hitting deadlines AND the drop. ✨
About us
Amazon is guided by four principles: customer obsession rather than competitor focus, passion for invention, commitment to operational excellence, and long-term thinking. We are driven by the excitement of building technologies, inventing products, and providing services that change lives. We embrace new ways of doing things, make decisions quickly, and are not afraid to fail. We have the scope and capabilities of a large company, and the spirit and heart of a small one. Together, Amazonians research and develop new technologies from Amazon Web Services to Alexa on behalf of our customers: shoppers, sellers, content creators, and developers around the world. Our mission is to be Earth's most customer-centric company. Our actions, goals, projects, programs, and inventions begin and end with the customer top of mind. You'll also hear us say that at Amazon, it's always "Day 1." What do we mean? That our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon's very first day - to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and focus on delighting our customers.

Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.8 is now available on Amazon Bedrock. This model works independently for longer. It holds context across multi-stage projects, self-corrects, and finds paths around obstacles instead of stalling out. For coding, it handles real-world work like refactors, debugging, and migrations across large codebases without constant hand-holding. That matters because the next wave of AI value comes from agents that can actually sustain complex work in production. Opus 4.8 is a real step forward there.

Every job is a two-person job when your bestie's involved. 🌱 This Global Month of Volunteering, this dynamic Amazonian duo is sticking together (literally) — to clean up parks, tackle invasive blackberry bushes, build care packages, plant seed balls, and more. It's all part of how Amazon team members volunteer year-round to strengthen local communities — from restoring ecosystems to supporting food banks and delivering relief after disasters. In 2025, team members participated in more than 500,000 volunteer activities across 55 countries.
