Software Development Engineer-AWS-DynamoDB Amazon
Seattle, WA

Job Description

Want to build insights to help DynamoDB reach Exabyte scale? Come and work with us.

DynamoDB is a fully managed NoSQL serverless database that provides fast and predictable performance (millisecond latencies for reads and writes) with seamless scalability. DynamoDB receives tens of millions of read and write requests per second to databases that are hundreds of TBs in size.

We are already one of the biggest distributed database systems in the world. That being said, we believe it is still Day 1 for DynamoDB and our aspirations are to grow this product by 10x in the next 2 years. We are looking for deeply technical, team first mentality individuals who are willing to commit themselves to this aspiration.

This will be a hands-on position where you will do everything from designing, implementing rock solid components, launching a new service iteratively, mentoring other engineers as well as evangelizing the work done by your team.

As an engineer on the Insights team, you will be responsible for building new high demand customer facing features for DynamoDB to help customers manage their tables efficiently by getting insights about their access patterns. This requires processing hundreds of millions of log data every hour and managing an internet-scale time-series database to power DynamoDB's 10X growth in the next 2 year

Your responsibilities will include:

* Be very hands-on; work with others on the engineering team to manage the day-to-day development activities, participate in designs, design review, code review, and implementation.
* Delivery quality features on-time and on-budget and execution against project plans and delivery commitments.
* Perform data analysis to identify opportunities to optimize our fleet.
* Work with data scientists to understand the data they need, and build services to act on the insight from the data scientist.
* Maintain current technical knowledge to support rapidly changing technology, always on a look out for new technologies and work with management and the development team in bringing in new technologies.

In joining our team, you'll enjoy a competitive salary, great benefits, a creative and comfortable work environment, and the exciting opportunity to be part of a fast-paced and growing technology company.
