System Development Engineer Amazon
Seattle, WA

Job Description

At the AWS Relational Database Service (RDS), we manage one of the largest fleets of relational databases on Earth, and are always working to be better at it. The RDS Operational Engineering team owns the charter to scale, automate and operationalize RDS, and we are heavily investing in automating, refactoring and holding a high bar for operational excellence through better software.

Do you like doing things well once, rather that several times? Does the sight of manual procedures cause you to twitch and then automate it in your favorite language? Do you like making thousands of hosts dance to the tune of your scalable automation? When others describe you, do they like to use words like "build/optimize/tinker"? Do you like software, but also geek out about Operating Systems and Networks at a deep level? If so, we should talk, as we'll have a lot in common!

RDS Operational Engineering is a team of Software Engineers and Systems Developers who are passionate about building scalable and elegant automation to solve real world problems, to be effective at scales that rarely exist outside of Amazon. If you want to come and learn/play at scales that you might not find anywhere else, come have chat to us.
