About the team
To drive the Prime Video and Prime flywheels through this efficient channel, the Device Partnerships team supports third-party (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. We deliver the Prime Video client on smart TVs, streaming media players, game consoles, and set top boxes and work with 3Ps to drive additional engagement on those devices through integration with features such as federated search and billing integration.
