Are you interested in building hyper-scale database services in the cloud? Do you want to revolutionize the way databases are built for the cloud? Do you want to have direct and immediate impact on hundreds of thousands of users who use AWS database services?

Amazon Aurora is a MySQL-compatible, relational database engine that combines the speed and availability of high-end commercial databases with the simplicity and cost-effectiveness of open source databases. It provides up to five times better performance than MySQL at a price point one tenth that of a commercial database while delivering similar performance and availability.

If you are interested in getting in on the ground floor within a fast-growing business and help shape the technology, product and the business, we would love to hear from you.

  2. Design, implement, test, deploy and maintain innovative software solutions to transform service performance, durability, cost, and security.
  3. Build high-quality, highly available, always-on products.
  4. Research implementations that deliver the best possible experiences for customers.
A Day in the Life

As you design and code solutions to help our team drive efficiencies in software architecture, you’ll create metrics, implement automation and other improvements, and resolve the root cause of software defects. You’ll also:

  1. Build high-impact solutions to deliver to our large customer base.
  2. Participate in design discussions, code review, and communicate with internal and external stakeholders.
  3. Work cross-functionally to help drive business decisions with your technical input.
  4. Work in a startup-like development environment, where you’re always working on the most important stuff.
