Job Description

JOB DESCRIPTION

Do you thrive on solving challenging problems? Are you inspired by performance, security, reliability, and resilience? Does working on truly massive global scale excite you? Are you truly passionate about innovating for the customer and willing to standup for doing the right thing?

Amazon Web Services is looking for both Leaders and Developers (including Test Automation) to help us define and build the future of computing. The AWS Elastic Block Store (EBS) service delivers high performance virtualized storage "in the cloud" for EC2. Durable storage is a key building block for any application and as a member of the EBS team you'll work alongside outstanding engineers and leaders to develop and operate one of the largest storage services in the world.

Be a part of the team that owns the core parts of the EBS storage technologies that durably persist all the data written to EBS volumes. We're looking for innovative engineers to own the performance, availability, scalability, and durability of EBS volumes. This is an opportunity to use advanced thread synchronization and CPU management techniques, work at lower layers of the networking stack, and take advantage of disk drive performance characteristics to engineer services that push the latest generation of hardware to its limits. Additionally, EBS is a massive-scale distributed system and so this position has the opportunity to work in two exciting areas of development.

All team members actively participate in product definition, technical architecture review, iterative development, code review, and operations. Along with this, you'll have the opportunity interact with customers to ensure their needs are met; clear, professional communication with developer customers is an important part of the job.
