Job Description

Amazon is looking for Systems Development Engineers to build the software that manages one of the world's largest and most complex networks. Tens of millions of customers rely on Amazon's network for using our retail websites, accessing content on their Kindles and building applications and businesses on top of Amazon Web Services (AWS). Our goal is to become The Infrastructure Platform for the world - achieving this goal requires high-leverage, massively scalable software systems. Our success depends on our world-class network infrastructure, and our network depends on our Network Reliability teams. The Link Lifecycle team builds critical software that enables humans and machines to isolate, troubleshoot and mitigate physical network failures. Over the next few years we will be making our products smarter and more efficient. The next generation of our platform has improved compatibility with other tools in the company, leverages machine learning, and provides higher quality data to our internal customers.

* We strive to have a collaborative environment that impacts products and software across the company
* We write primarily in Python and use AWS technologies like: DynamoDB, S3, EC2, Lambda, ELB, RDS, and Athena

* We are spread across Seattle and Dublin
* Our work has a direct impact on internal and external customers
* We own and operate the infrastructure required to serve our customers
* We have a weekly on-call rotation
