Importance of Amazon's LP "Deliver Results" for Engineers.

Perhaps, the most important LP at Amazon is "Deliver Results". It is kind of a minimum requirement from everyone to consistently deliver result. Across all levels it is only about delivering results. No one cares about something cool and complex you learned if it has not customer impact.

"Deliver results" is about your ability to unblock yourself when problems arise: how you can handle conflicting opinions, being not unfamiliar with a technology, or even simply getting comments in the reviews that postpone your delivery.

"Deliver results" is NOT about high quality or high standards. However, the higher your level, the higher quality is expected. At the end of the day, let's be fair, "Deliver results" does not go in the isolation and is normally backed by the other LPs. This makes it very powerful for Amazon.

At the interview, you will be asked about a story when you demonstrated this quality. So be equipped with a story when you were able to deliver results despite difficult circumstances.
