Description

Do you like to use network and Unix systems engineering to deliver simple, sustainable, and repeatable solutions? Would you like to play a key role in driving the stability and sustainability of next-generation IP networks?

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.

You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

The Core Networking team is looking for a Software Development Engineer to join our Network Fabric Engineering (NFE) team. As a Software Development Engineer, you will be responsible for building software services to deploy and scale the Amazon networks that support AWS, customers, and other business units, across multiple global datacenters.

AWS Core Networking is focused on building Data Centers and the network that allows Data Centers to function efficiently. We own the solutions that allow racks to be aggregated and Data Centers to be interconnected. Core Networking's goal is to balance efficiency, performance and reliability to allow customers access to their applications and data.



Key job responsibilities
We are looking for an experienced Software Development Engineer with production quality software services experience. You are comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where delivery of new services and features is very rapid. The ideal candidate will demonstrate established software engineering expertise, having successfully developed and launched extensive distributed systems in collaboration with a team. You are adaptable, capable of excelling in a dynamic and entrepreneurial setting. You will be responsible for delivering high quality, extensible design and code. You are expected to have extensive background in network engineering and can troubleshoot network issues. You are expected to mentor and guide junior engineers. You are comfortable managing competing priorities and are able to bring order to ambiguous scenarios. You identify and implement optimizations for performance, scalability, and efficiency. Maturity, impeccable judgment, and the ability to influence and lead are essential to success in this role. You are data-driven and analytical. You have the ability to communicate clearly and effectively, both in writing and verbally, across organizations.

A day in the life
• Work in a 24x7 team on call rotation, with ability to drive into workplace for critical events/needs.
• Manage customers during problem resolution and operating efficiently under pressure.
• Sit at the computer during scheduled work hours with appropriate breaks while maintaining a high level of alertness and attention to detail.
• Travel to data center/network sites and Amazon/customer offices as needed.
