posted about 2 months ago
This is an excellent opportunity to join Amazon's world-class technical team in Seattle, WA, working with some of the best and brightest engineers and technical managers while also developing your skills and furthering your career within one of the most innovative and progressive technology companies anywhere. Amazon Web Service is building some of the largest distributed systems in the world. Amazon's Analytics offerings like ElasticSearch, QuickSight, Glue, Athena, LakeFormation, EMR, and RedShift are massively scaled services that make up a critical piece of the internet today. A successful Engineer joining the team will do much more than write code and triage problems. They will work with Amazon's largest and most demanding customers to address specific needs across a full suite of services. They will dive deeply into technical issues and work relentlessly to improve the customer experience. The ideal candidate will be great fun to work with, embodying the company credo of "Work hard. Have fun. Make history". The right candidate will love what they do and instinctively know how to make work fun. The position requires a strong Linux and Networking background, with deep experience working in a large-scale, distributed environment. Candidates should understand networking technology and how servers and networks inter-relate, regularly participating in deep-dive troubleshooting and conducting technical post-mortem discussions to identify the root cause of complex issues. The ideal candidate will also think big, building and deploying solutions across thousands of devices and striving to improve and streamline processes to allow for work on a massive scale. This position requires that the candidate selected must currently possess and maintain an active TS/SCI security clearance with polygraph, and opt into a commensurate clearance for each government agency for which they perform AWS work.
