Amazon has a new ZeroOne team led by Xbox cofounder J Allard focusing on 'breakthrough' devices, including a smart home device.
J Allard, known for his work on Xbox and Zune, joined Amazon in late 2024 to explore 'new ideas.'
The job listings for Allard's team include positions in applied science, product marketing, and customer insights for developing a new smart-home product and possibly an Amazon device.
While specifics on ZeroOne's product release timeline remain unclear, Amazon already has a strong presence in the smart home tech with its Alexa ecosystem and various product lines.
