Key job responsibilities
As a member of the Storage System Hardware engineering team, you will be responsible for bringing new HDD technology to our systems & products as well as scaling how we operate our massive existing & rapidly growing fleet. You will interact with engineers across the company, external vendors and work with an interdisciplinary team to execute product designs from concept to production including design, development, validation, and the successful implementation of your work at large scale. You’ll provide leadership in the application of new technologies to large scale server deployments in a continuous effort to deliver a world-class customer experience. This is a fast-paced, challenging position, and you’ll work with thought leaders in multiple technology areas. You’ll have high standards for yourself and everyone you work with, and you’ll be constantly looking for ways to improve your products performance, quality and cost. We’re changing an industry, and we want team members who are ready for this challenge and want to reach beyond what is possible today.
A day in the life
You will own one of the largest hard drive fleets in the world. You will focus on introducing new technology and hardware into data centers, qualifying firmware, and maintaining the fleet.
Efforts will entail driving validation and qualification of drives + firmware. Debugging system interaction issues to fix issues impacting the fleet. Managing large scale fleet analytics to determine areas of focus.
Given the size of the fleet, nothing can be done manually. Script, automate, program, and build the next generation of storage here at AWS.
