Job Description
DESCRIPTION
Amazon Web Services is looking for a Software Development Engineer. This position focuses on complex, ambiguous problem areas and innovative software initiatives in the EC2 Dataplane LSE team within the EC2 Infrastructure Services organization. This role requires broad engineering competence and in-depth technical knowledge of software development, DevOps, infrastructure tools and distributed systems, as well as demonstrated experience in planning, organizing, and executing software development projects in a dynamic environment. You will work closely with Security Engineers, Sr. Software Engineers, Principal and Distinguished Engineers throughout AWS to define technical roadmap and follow through with world-class execution.
The EC2 Dataplane LSE team owns and operates services and tools that are designed to detect and recover host and rack-level availability failures and also recover EC2 instances back to availability. We architect, develop and operate tier1 services that are highly available and resilient to failures, and these services are critical to ensure the highest availability of the broader EC2 service. The critical role of our team is exemplified by the fact that we are the first responder team to engage for any large scale event impacting the EC2 infrastructure. Our team is also closely involved in providing health monitoring capabilities for EC2’s newest and upcoming ML infrastructure.
If the challenge of building the next generation of compute platform excites you, come join us to shape the future of compute services!
Key job responsibilities
* Design, develop, operate and own large-scale services, architecting them to scale
* Provide technical leadership and mentor lead junior engineers in the team
* Write high quality code to develop new systems, conduct deep design and code reviews
* Solve problems at their root, stepping back to understand the broader context, and implementing fixes to ensure that an issue will never happen again
* Share in an on-call rotation with your team to assist with incident response when there is a major customer disruption
A day in the life
We work closely with EC2 Senior engineer, Principal Engineers and Senior Leadership. We also interact with HW engineers. Our engineers balance development work with operations and always have customers at the forefront of our minds.
