About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled Senior Software Development Engineer to join our AWS Compute Services team. As a key member of our team, you will be responsible for designing, developing, testing, and deploying distributed machine learning systems and large-scale solutions for our world-wide customer base.

You will collaborate closely with a team of ML scientists to influence our overall strategy and define the team's road map. You will also drive the system architecture, spearhead best practices that enable a quality product, and help coach and develop junior engineers.

A successful candidate will have an established background in engineering large scale software systems, a strong technical ability, great communication skills, and a motivation to achieve results in a fast paced environment.

About the Team

As a member of the UC organization, you'll support the development and management of Compute, Database, Storage, Internet of Things (Iot), Platform, and Productivity Apps services in AWS, including support for customers who require specialized security solutions for their cloud services.

What We Offer

We strive for flexibility as part of our working culture and offer a work-life balance that allows you to achieve success at work without sacrificing your personal life.

We are committed to creating an inclusive team culture that empowers us to be proud of our differences. We offer ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences, to inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness.
