Software Development Manager Amazon
Seattle, WA

Job Description

Our program's mission is to increase developer productivity for Amazon engineers by eliminating their undifferentiated effort through abstractions and automation. We consider any effort, not directly associated with business logic design and implementation, to be undifferentiated. Our program helps shape the Amazon compute strategy by building highly available platforms that offer different levels of abstractions to accommodate our diverse use cases. We host thousands of Java services that operate at the core of Amazon's business, at Internet scale (tens of thousands of transactions per second). We enable Amazon's internal developers to improve time-to-market by allowing them to simply launch their application code as a service, operating in a managed, tier-1, resource-efficient hosted environment.

We are looking for an experienced leader, who shares our passion for efficiency and developer productivity, to lead one of our talented delivery teams. You will help improve resource usage efficiency, increase availability, and improve the developer/operational experience for tenants. These are exciting times in our space - even with 3000+ tenants serving over 700 billion requests per week, we are still at an early stage and working on ambitious new initiatives where every member of the team can have significant technical and business impact.

In this role you will be responsible for leading engineers in tackling core software engineering problems - distributed computing, resource usage efficiency, software isolation, fault tolerance and using AWS cloud technologies (EC2, ECS, Lambda, etc.) to architect highly scalable systems. If you are interested in positively impacting hundreds of Amazon development teams across the world by engaging in technically challenging and personally rewarding work, then we look forward to speaking with you.
