Job description

Description

Would you like to be part of a team that shapes how developers build, monitor, and manage workflows and event-driven applications across AWS?

The AWS Workflow Experience team owns the console experiences for AWS Step Functions, Amazon EventBridge, AWS Simple Workflow Service, and Lambda Durable Functions. These services are used by hundreds of thousands of customers - from startups to Fortune 500 enterprises - to orchestrate the workflows and processes that drive their business. Our mission is to make it easier for customers to build and operate workflows, and in doing so, make it easier to build cloud-native applications on AWS.

The ideal candidate is genuinely excited about technology, passionate about learning, and views every customer interaction as an opportunity to create an exceptional experience. You're comfortable working across the stack - building intuitive front-end experiences one day and designing the services that power them the next. You thrive in a fast-moving, startup-like environment where innovation is encouraged and ownership is expected.

Come build software that delights developers and has lasting impact on how modern applications are built in the world of serverless and workflow architectures.


Key job responsibilities
- Design, build, and operate features across the stack - from intuitive front-end experiences to the services and APIs that power them
- Own projects end-to-end: scoping, design, implementation, testing, deployment, and ongoing operational health
- Collaborate with UX designers, product managers, and partner teams to deliver features that delight developers
- Use data and customer feedback to identify opportunities and continuously improve the product experience
- Contribute to system architecture, operational excellence, and engineering best practices

A day in the life
The challenges SDEs solve for at Amazon are big and influence millions of customers, sellers, and products around the world. We are looking for individuals who are passionate about creating new products, features, and services from scratch while managing ambiguity and the pace of a company where development cycles are measured in days or weeks, not years.

Basic Qualifications

- 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
- 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
- Experience programming with at least one software programming language

Preferred Qualifications

- 3+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience
- Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent
- Experience in a broad range of software design approaches and common UX patterns.
