Job Description

Come build the future of Linux and Containers at Amazon!

If you are an experienced systems engineer who is passionate about building the platform to support the world's premier cloud computing environment, then this is the job for you. In this role, you'll sit at the intersection of operating systems and containers.

The Amazon Linux team is responsible for the design and maintenance of all of Amazon's core compute platforms, with a special focus on EC2, the Elastic Compute Cloud that is the basis for much of Amazon Web Services (AWS). We're also responsible for tools associated with the performance characterization, qualification, build and deployment of our Linux platforms.

Systems Development Engineers work with technical leaders to refine technical direction, and then follow through with detailed analysis, designs, and superior code. They are equally comfortable leading small, focused project teams as well as making major direct contributions to the project. They deliver features with minimal direct oversight.

The baseline individual for this role will be entirely comfortable with the Linux operating system and understand how to develop in languages such as C, C++, Python, and Ruby in a Linux environment. Experience with Linux package management, version control systems, automated build processes, and software unit testing are a must. An understanding of and experience in contributing to open source projects is a plus. Specific in depth knowledge of the use, design, and development of Linux operating system internals will help you succeed in this role.

This team creates the very core of the cloud, and is directly responsible for radically changing and improving the way that people use computers - come help us make history!
