Job description

DESCRIPTION Would you like to help U.S. Intelligence Community agencies implement innovative cloud computing solutions and solve technical problems? Would you like to do this using the latest cloud computing technologies? Amazon Web Services is a dynamic and rapidly growing business within We are building some of the largest and most complex distributed systems in the world, and we need world class people to help us implement and operate them. We provide organizations with building block web services that allow them to innovate faster and operate their software more cost-effectively. These services-in-the-cloud include on-demand compute capacity, storage, content delivery, querying of structured data, message queuing, and more. The AWS team is building and delivering the next generation of cloud computing that supports public AWS offerings like S3, EC2, and CloudFront. We are innovating new ways of building massively scalable distributed systems. We have high standards for our computer systems as well as our employees: our systems are highly secure, highly reliable, highly available, and should function at massive scale; our employees are super smart, driven to serve customers, and fun to work with. On a "typical" day, Amazon Dedicated Cloud engineers might deep dive to root cause a customer issue, investigate why a metric is trending the wrong way, consult with the top engineers at Amazon, or discuss radical new approaches to automate operational issues. We are looking for a System Development Engineer to join our energetic, fast-moving and passionate team. This is an opportunity to build and operate systems on a massive scale, and to gain top-notch experience in cloud computing. You'll be surrounded by people who are smart, passionate about cloud computing, and believe that world class service is critical to customer success. We are looking for someone who can build on existing services and architectures, and is excited to create new automated solutions. This position is perfect for you if you:
- Would like to gain a deeper understanding of AWS Support Applications services, capabilities, and functionality.
- Are interested in creating tools and automation that enable engineers to be as "hands-off" as possible.
- Have a "Think Big" mentality that empowers you to think outside of the box.
- Regularly seek simple ways to approach complex issue or processes. You will have the opportunity to:
- Explore the inner workings of Support Applications that our customers use and how they communicates with other AWS services.
- Engage other AWS engineers world-wide to deploy, configure, and troubleshoot 150+ services.
- Express your creative, innovative ideas to make our team even more awesome!
- Provide invaluable support to the U.S. Intelligence Community. We want our service to be as autonomous as possible, and that can only be done by having bright engineers who understand how to Think Big, simplify solutions to complex unprecedented problems, all in pursuit of the best customer experience possible. Our environment is built for engineers who flourish in creating automation to reduce the operational workload rather than simply performing operational work all day. Successful candidates will join an elite engineering team, and innovate to replace operational tasks with scripts and code. If you are a talented, detail-oriented and enthusiastic professional who is passionate about providing exemplary customer service, eager to learn new technologies and have a desire to support the critical work of the U.S. Intelligence Community, this position is for you! This position requires that the candidate selected must currently possess and maintain an active TS/SCI security clearance. The position further requires that, after start, the selected candidate obtain and maintain an active TS/SCI security clearance with polygraph or commensurate clearance for each government agency for which they perform AWS work.
