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.
Do you enjoy your favorite websites, movie streaming services and mobile app
working all the time without you ever worrying about how the underlying systems
that serve you the content do that quickly and reliably, seem to magically work
without exhibiting capacity limits, are resilient to hardware failures, and
survive even state-wide natural disasters? If the answer is yes, and the
question spikes your interest, then read on.
We run Amazon Route 53, a highly available and scalable cloud Domain Name System
(DNS) service. Our day to day work is to design, develop, deploy and operate
software that manages customer DNS data. Due to the critical nature of DNS, we
try to make our software highly available and scalable and efficient, which
essentially requires developing complex distributed systems. As a result,
members of our team are either experts in building robust distributed systems or
are becoming experts.
Our team is dedicated to supporting new team members. We are a good mix of new
and experienced engineers, creating the perfect environment for you to both
mentor and be mentored. You will have a dedicated mentor to help you get started
and we all enjoy helping each other grow through one-on-one mentoring and
thorough, but kind, code reviews.
We take code reviews seriously. We believe that good code reviews raise our code
quality, grow our technical acumen, and provide opportunities to support and
share knowledge with each other.
We care about your career growth. We try to assign projects and tasks based on
what will help each team member develop into a more well-rounded engineer and
enable them to take on more complex tasks in the future. You will also review
your work with your manager every quarter to understand where you are in terms
of career growth.
Our team is family-oriented and values work-life balance.
This position involves on-call responsibilities. 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 well built, well tested and 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.
We’re looking for a new teammate who is enthusiastic, empathetic, curious,
motivated, and reliable; someone who will help us build on the positive team
culture we’ve been cultivating.
