About the position

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. CloudFront is one of AWS' largest services, at the center of almost every major Internet event. For sporting events such as the Super Bowl, game launches, movies, or TV, there's a tremendous amount of work that goes on behind the scenes to ensure the data is transferred with high performance and efficiency. If you enjoy solving challenging problems with unparalleled scale, this is the team for you! The CloudFront Client Acceleration team is looking to rapidly expand to focus on new initiatives to optimize the performance and availability of all users when connecting to edge locations. If you ever watch a stream and encounter buffering, or are downloading something slower than usual - there's a reason for that and most often our team is working on the problem. This includes building new solutions to automatically mitigate DDoS attacks and traffic flashcrowds in real-time, at traffic levels that would normally lead to major impact. We are also improving communication via new protocols and web servers, built with the primary objective to handle all communication efficiently and with high performance. The team faces hard challenges at scale to solve these problems, and we depend on high collaboration and innovation to work together to get there. This also means everyone on the team will embrace diving into new areas, such as probabilistic data structures, machine learning, and AI.
