As part of this team, you will be responsible for helping to design and build one or more systems that together powers our service. You will have the opportunity to work on the development of the end-to-end experience of this service. Roles include working on back-end API development, security and identity, serverless distributed systems, NoSQL data storage, complex event orchestration and automation, real-time data processing, and infrastructure automation. In addition, we face all the usual scale, availability, latency, and co-ordination challenges of running a cloud-scale service.

You will have the opportunity to apply this passion by leveraging your technical skills in areas such as algorithms, distributed systems, web development, front-end/back-end design, and more.

About the teamWork/Life BalanceOur team puts a high value on work-life balance. Our team is mostly located in Austin, TX, but we're very flexible when people occasionally need to work from home. Most engineers generally keep in-office hours three days a week from 10am to 6pm CDT. Some of us may come in earlier or stay later, depending on the day.On-Call ResponsibilityThis position involves on-call responsibilities, typically for one week a month, but as the team grows this will lessen. 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 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.Mentorship & Career GrowthOur team is dedicated to supporting new team members. We have a broad mix of experience levels and Amazon tenures, and we're building an environment that celebrates knowledge sharing and mentorship. Everyone on the team plays a role in raising the bar on how we develop complex, scalable, reliable code for our team.
