Amazon Jobs
Software Development Engineer, AWS Vetting
Amazon Jobs, Cupertino, California, United States, 95014
Overview
Come change the way the world sees the Cloud!
What do we do? We build platforms and tools that ensure the health of AWS hardware by testing every new and rebuilt system across all AWS data centers. Our platform enables service owners such as EC2, EBS, S3, and other services to deliver healthy servers for production. Our team leads a large-scale service that sets the bar for Amazon and the industry in platform level services, effectively enabling the hardware at scale by designing and developing the software that manages the verification and testing of every server in AWS.
Why it’s high-impact? We set the bar high to ensure that AWS customers get the capacity they need to run their applications on healthy hardware servers within an SLA.
Key responsibilities
Solve complex problems, applying appropriate technologies and best practices.
Focus on a major portion of existing or new team software, including large or significant component, set of features, mid-size application or service.
Work with your team to invent, design and build software that is stable and performant. You write code that an SDE unfamiliar with the system can understand.
Work on project ideas with customers, stakeholders, peers and helping balance customer requirements with team requirements.
You help your team evolve by actively participating in the code review process, design discussions, team planning, and ticket/metric/COE reviews.
Improve and focus on operational excellence, constructively identifying problems and proposing solutions.
Work to resolve the root cause of complex problems, leaving software better and easier to maintain than when you found it.
As needed, support training new team-mates on how your team’s software is constructed, how it operates, how secure it is, and how it fits into the bigger picture.
A day in the life What’s the challenge: Engineers work in fast-moving space and have a large number of ambiguous challenges. Our projects require deep technical and software expertise and the ability to work within a fast moving, startup environment in a large company. You will be responsible for identifying solutions, trying ideas, given space to fail and iterate to produce products that your customers love. Software Engineers stay close to the customer as well as the architecture and design. Engineers dive deep to understand how things work, when to make subtle change, and when to disrupt the status quo to achieve the right results.
