Sakshi Chauhan — Director of Engineering
I work as a Software Engineering Manager at Amazon Prime Video, leading the Offer Clarity team, based in London. My team builds and maintains backend services that power key user actions on Prime Video. From the “Play” button to purchase or subscription options, my team ensures customers have a seamless experience interacting with our platform. We also handle relevant text summary, informing users of the best ways to watch content, whether it's subscribing to Prime or discovering top-rated titles like Oscar winners or local favorites. Collaborating closely with product teams across Prime Video, I work to ensure that the most relevant offers and content are surfaced to our users. I’m passionate about driving long-term value while balancing the immediate needs of our customers. In addition to my technical responsibilities, I’m deeply committed to the personal and professional growth of my team, focusing on career development and building a strong, empathetic, and connected team culture. Prior to this role, I served as a Software Engineer in the Prime Video team, contributing to the platform's dynamic growth. Before Amazon, my journey included a role at Goldman Sachs in London, where I played a part in developing a web-based trading platform. My professional foundation was laid at Microsoft India R&D Pvt Ltd, where I worked as a Software Engineer, contributing to highly optimized Data Retrieval services and Cloud-based Data Stores in the Sales and Marketing Engineering group.
