About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled Software Development Engineer III to lead the technical vision and architecture for mission-critical systems that connect Amazon developers and services with AWS's cloud platform.

This is a unique opportunity to innovate in areas such as enterprise-scale resource management in the cloud, real-time cloud intelligence and detection, and building systems that make it easy for service owners to establish functional and secure network connectivity, regardless of where their service or dependencies are hosted.

You will partner with the leadership team to drive key engineering and business decisions that will influence and impact Amazon's software stack on AWS.

A successful candidate is expected to possess strong technical skills, including architecture-level thinking, and strong analytical skills to support operations and drive root-cause analysis.

They are expected to have strong verbal and written communication skills and be self-driven with a focus on delivering high-quality results in a fast-paced environment.

Key Responsibilities
  • Deliver software projects, owning all aspects of the software lifecycle - design, development, documentation, testing, and operations.
  • Demonstrate customer obsession in supporting our customers' business objectives.
  • Dive deep into operational issues, identify root-causes to operational issues like latency spikes, SLA breaches, and functionality regressions.
  • Produce concise documents - strategy and vision narratives, design documents, project plans, operational summaries, and analysis, and customer communication.
  • Contribute to creating a team culture of excellence.
