Senior Software Engineer Amazon
Herndon, VA

Job Description

The Amazon Web Services EC2 team located in Herndon, VA is actively recruiting Senior Software Developers to help revolutionize the cloud. These positions require deep and broad expertise including hands on coding, architecture, mentoring and team lead experience.

At Amazon Web Services, we like to "work backwards", first understanding what customers need and using that data to guide our software engineering. Our best ideas become even better when we get feedback from real customer use. The EC2 team recently responded to customer feedback with the development and launch of the AWS Bring Your Own IP (BYOIP) feature. BYOIP allows customers to bring their own publicly-routable IP address prefixes to AWS, simplifying migrations and ensuring applications maintain their trusted IP status with existing whitelisted firewalls.

We're looking for a senior engineer to drive technical efforts and deliver solid, scalable systems on an aggressive schedule within a Java/Linux environment. Our senior software engineers must remain aware of the long-term vision while shepherding the team through short, tactical iterations.

This position will be part of the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) team in the Herndon, VA office. The team is responsible for a variety of networking products that help ensure EC2 customers have a great experience. Our problem spaces range from kernel development to big data, and everything in between. The ideal candidate will have passion and talent for solving complex problems of scalability and availability in massively distributed systems.
