Would you like to drive the architecture of some of the largest telemetry and control systems on the planet?

AWS Hardware Control Interactions provide the underlying server management infrastructure used by every server in Amazon, from EC2 to S3 to DynamoDB and beyond. Consequently, we own some of the most sophisticated software, and back-end service infrastructure. Optimizing human as well as machine to machine interactions in a dynamic and evolving hardware environment, monitored with millions upon millions of sensors, is a massive challenge, and we love it!

We are looking for a customer-obsessed, data driven, senior technical leader to take our services to the next level of scale, availability, and performance. Is that you? How can you tell? You find problems in real-time data streaming, feedback control systems, and other such topics to be extremely fascinating, maybe even addictive. You love to rove across the stack, from hyper-efficient client-side embedded software to high-scale back-end distributed systems. Your teammates say things like, “Every time we speak, I learn something new that grows me as an engineer.” Your passion for engineering best practices is second-to-none. Finally, you hunger to give customers what they want: high quality, high performance, always-on devices and servers.

Key job responsibilities
In this position, you’ll have the opportunity to: - Serve as the technical leader on our most demanding projects, including the launch of new services and features that will be deployed and used at massive scale
- Work with technology leaders to define and drive critical features and architectural advancements into our services
- Interact with customers and other service teams to understand requirements and define solutions
- Positively impact customers through improvements in server availability and performance
- Positively impact the planet through improvements in efficiency of server power usage
- Ensure the quality of architecture of our systems
- Assist in the career development of others, actively mentoring individuals and the community on advanced technical issues and helping managers guide the career growth of their team members
- Provide technical guidance to junior engineers in the team, increasing their productivity and effectiveness by sharing your deep knowledge and experience
- Advocate for the customer and ensure we are building the best possible experience
