About the team

We own the systems that hold and serve the authoritative billing facts for AWS Commerce Platform services. We sit upstream of the bill computation systems, so our data quality and freshness affect SLAs for systems downstream. We're a team that treats correctness and operational rigor as first principles, but moves quickly when downstream teams and customers need us. We solve problems at the intersection of large-scale data systems, durable storage, and the trust customers place in their bill. This is a space where being right matters more than anything, and where the data we own touches every Billing team.
