The Transactional Data Storage org builds data platforms which are at the core
of Amazon’s consumer and digital businesses. Our OLTP storage platform, Sable,
processes billions of transactions every day around the globe. We own multiple
tier-1/mission-critical services fueling the growth of Amazon businesses to
store customer orders, catalog and product information, shopping cart, Kindle
device information, and hundreds of other business critical data-sets. The
performance and availability of our platform is critical to the reliability of
the Amazon brand. We run some of the largest fleets and the highest throughput
services at Amazon. We partner with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to leverage
technologies built for cloud customers, and to offer technologies we invent
through AWS channels to the broader market.
We are looking for a passionate engineer who understands distributed systems at
scale and is interested to learn about database systems from database engine
design to operating a tier-1 flagship product. This engineer will work with
Principal Engineers and lead their team to build and operate large document
storage, data transformations and data tiering capabilities. You will build
regionally flexible, cost effective storage with advanced management
capabilities. An engineer in this role will have strong sense of ownership, high
bar for operational excellence and proven record of solving hard technical
problems from design to delivery.
