Software Development Engineer , Network Monitoring and Remediation

Description

Amazon is looking for Software Development Engineers to build the software that monitors one of the world’s largest and most complex networks. Tens of millions of customers rely on Amazon’s network for using our retail websites, accessing content on their Kindles and building applications and businesses on top of Amazon Web Services (AWS). Our goal is to become The Infrastructure Platform for the world – achieving this goal requires high-leverage, massively scalable software systems. Our success depends on our world-class network infrastructure, and our network depends on our Network Monitoring and Remediation team.

AWS Network Monitoring and Remediation owns the systems that detect, diagnose, and automatically resolve impairments across AWS's global network. In other words, we're the people who keep the cloud's network healthy. We build the near-real-time probing, telemetry processing, and triangulation infrastructure that continuously measures the performance and availability of every path across the Amazon network. When something degrades, our systems pinpoint the problem in seconds and drive automated remediation, so our customers keep uninterrupted access to the innovation they rely on. We work on some of the hardest problems in distributed systems and observability, operating at a scale where billions of measurements turn into actionable signal, and we're looking for talented people who want to help.

You'll join a diverse team of software, network, and systems engineers who partner closely with operations, remediation, and network design teams across AWS. You'll collaborate with people throughout the organization to deliver the highest standards for accuracy, speed, and reliability while turning an immense stream of network data into precise, trustworthy insight 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.

Key job responsibilities
- You are interested in being part of a high-bar team with global responsibility for the Network Monitoring software used across all of Amazon’s businesses.
- Solving problems at scale excites you.
- You do not implement specs from analysts and architects – you talk to your customers and design solutions to their problems. You automate and innovate.
- You do not push just one technology agenda – you choose the best tool for the problem at hand.
- You do not throw your code over the wall. You launch it, own it, support it and make it incrementally better for the benefit of your customers.
- You enjoy working in a flexible, fast-paced, collaborative team environment.
