DESCRIPTION

Come help us build automation that manages millions of hosts for Amazon.

The Managed Fleets team abstracts host and fleet management away from thousands of service teams across Amazon, freeing up engineers to build services and deliver value to our customers. We operate at scale and manage millions of hosts keeping them safe, secure and efficient. To achieve this requires us to innovate and keep abreast with the latest cutting-edge technologies.

Utility Computing (UC)
AWS Utility Computing (UC) provides product innovations — from foundational services such as Amazon’s Simple Storage Service (S3) and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), to consistently released new product innovations that continue to set AWS’s services and features apart in the industry. As a member of the UC organization, you’ll support the development and management of Compute, Database, Storage, Internet of Things (Iot), Platform, and Productivity Apps services in AWS, including support for customers who require specialized security solutions for their cloud services.


Key job responsibilities
On the Managed Fleets team, you will get to build innovative software that lets customers define the shape and size of their fleets and to monitor the health and efficiency of how they are run. You will be using technologies like Java, Typescript, React and Python as well as various Native AWS services and Amazon-internal tools. We don't expect you to be an expert in, or know all these technologies listed, but we do expect you to be excited to learn about them. As an experienced engineer in this team, you will play a committed role in developing high quality software designs & solutions to our often complex problems.

This position involves on-call responsibilities. This is typically once every 6 weeks. We don’t like to be paged unnecessarily and we strive to keep this down and ensure our systems are fault tolerant. Our team values work-life balance and respect each others time.


A day in the life
A successful Software Development Engineer will have good design skills, an excellent ability to solve problems, good communication skills and a desire to be a key technical contributor. The software you will be responsible for will require a breadth of technical development knowledge (i.e. distributed systems, synchronous API orchestration, scalability, availability).

Daily work will involve interacting with engineers, stakeholders and managers. We are just starting to scratch the surface of the opportunity in front of us and if this sounds like a place for you; come build with us and have Amazon-scale impact.

About the team
Our team supports each other in growing both personally and in our careers. We drive a high bar for quality via our design and code review processes. We also make time for social activities and to have fun at work.
