Description

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help. You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion. Does working on global scale high performance distributed systems and packet processors excite you?We are a core team in AWS EC2 Networking organization, creating and enhancing critical services that form the foundation of the AWS VPC. Our mission is provide the thinnest possible layer at the edge of the AWS network to deliver a superior customer experience for packet processing. As a Software Development Engineer, you will be responsible for influencing and shaping the direction of our services. You will define, plan, and execute on deliverables that delight internal and external customers alike. We operate at global scale and enable customers to build high availability systems world-wide, so a passion and discipline around operational excellence is paramount. With the extensive network and access to Sr., Principal, Sr. Principal and Distinguished Engineers across EC2, AWS and Amazon, there are many stretch opportunities to grow your skills and knowledge. We are growing fast, and are looking for kernel/embedded C programmers who can deliver ultra-high performance - our goal is to be processing many millions of packets per second on embedded CPU cores. This requires both being able to implement highly optimized data structures, but also low level tuning to our hardware. If you have good experience in C/C++, and a passion for systems software engineering such as kernel or embedded development, then this is a unique opportunity to join us in building the platform which is the basis for all new EC2 VPC features in the years to come. Key job responsibilities A Software Development Engineer on the team is expected to operate autonomously, deliver projects that have scope at the team level and are starting to interact with other teams. While they are capable of independently designing, developing, and testing software components, they are expected to seek input from more senior engineers through regular reviews. They seek guidance from their manager, Sr. Engineers, or Principal Engineers when facing trade-off decisions. They mentor new team members on how the team’s services are constructed and operate. They help guide and influence the team by providing feedback during code reviews and operations reviews and they influence their manager by contributing during backlog reviews and planning meetings. They solve difficult technical problems that require understanding the team’s software and weigh trade-offs to deliver solutions that are logical, testable and maintainable. A day in the life A typical day for this role will include driving designs for components and services that deliver new features and capabilities, reviewing code of other members on the team, writing complex code, performing root cause analysis on operational events, providing project updates to leadership and other team members and developing estimates for upcoming deliverables. This position involves on-call responsibilities, typically for one week every two months. We don’t like getting paged in the middle of the night or on the weekend, so we work to ensure that our systems are fault tolerant. When we do get paged, we work together to resolve the root cause so that we don’t get paged for the same issue twice. About the team We are a team of passionate software and system development engineers building and maintaining mission critical, high scale and high performance software defined networking systems that underpin AWS Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) and enable the magic of elastic networking. We work hard and have fun doing so with weekly happy hour events. We work as a cohesive team solving problems and innovating to delight our customers together. Our team is dedicated to supporting new members. We have a broad mix of experience levels and tenures, and we’re building an environment that celebrates knowledge-sharing and mentorship. Our senior members enjoy one-on-one mentoring and thorough, but kind, code reviews. We care about your career growth and strive to assign projects that help our team members develop your engineering expertise so you feel empowered to take on more complex tasks in the future. Basic Qualifications: - 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience - 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience - Experience programming with at least one software programming language Preferred Qualifications: - 3+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience - Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent Amazon is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of protected veteran status, disability, or other legally protected status.
