Amazon’s network is a key differentiator for Amazon Cloud Computing and Amazon Web Services (AWS), enabling the global operation of thousands of applications across millions of servers worldwide. The Networking team develops and operates the network for all of Amazon including e-commerce products and cloud computing solutions. This network is industry-leading for its efficiency, throughput and reliability, and it is critical to the success of hundreds of thousands of AWS customers.
Our team owns the monitoring product for Amazon’s network. Our goal is to detect any networking impact even before our customers can notice it. To achieve that, our product is constantly actively monitoring hundreds of thousands of network equipment across the globe.
We are looking for a Systems Development Engineer who is passionate about optimizing existing architecture, designing new solution, raising the operational bar for their team, making our systems more reliable and available, interacting directly with our customers.
You will be responsible for projects, from the scoping and design, to the delivery. Participating in the implementation, but also leading other engineers to help you to achieve satisfying our customers.
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.
