Job Description

Are you interested in building a Brand New High Scale Intelligent Database Service in AWS from the grounds up? This is your opportunity to be part of Amazon Timestream which we just announced at re:Invent 2018. Come join us, work hard, have fun and be part of making the history.

Our software developers build the next generation technologies that change how millions of AWS customers connect, and interact with AWS services ecosystem. We use ideas from every facet of computer science including distributed computing, large-scale design, big and real-time data processing, data storage, service oriented architecture, networking, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. We are looking for a highly-motivated and passionate Software Development Manager to lead a team to build our next generation high performance purpose-built distributed data storage platform to solve real-time ingestion, storage, query, transaction and analytics processing for large scale data applications.

As part of the Amazon Timestream team (https://aws.amazon.com/timestream/), you will lead a group of highly talented engineers who are building our next-generation "purpose built" NoSQL database platform that allows developers to build highly available, scalable and high performance applications. This high performance, low-latency database will be purpose built for applications which exhibit definitive data patterns and need massive write ingestion scale and highly performant and SQL supported Queries. In addition, you will lead the delivery of a new highly scalable and available management plane system using micro-services architecture that can support use cases like multi dimensional auto scaling of the database partitions, capacity management, real-time heat and failure detection and auto-remediation system that can detect node failures in our large distributed cluster, initiate and remediate failed nodes within seconds.

These software services have unprecedented scale, performance and durability requirements. You will lead the software development of large-scale distributed purpose built database platform; in Java, C/C++ and other languages using open source technologies and Amazon proprietary technologies. Some of the roadmap items that you will own and champion includes supporting HTTP/REST services, asynchronous messaging, event-based technologies, real-time failure detection system, horizontal and vertical scaling, management and monitoring plane workflows, auto-remediation, serverless and auto scaling, fault tolerance, backup and restore technologies, disaster recovery and prevention.

If you are interested in leading building of large-scale distributed systems, have high quality bar, flair for innovation, and passion for solving some of the most challenging problems in the industry, we need you! You'll have an opportunity to work alongside and learn from the architects of Amazon's AWS infrastructure, and to build the platform that drives the success of Amazon's businesses.
