Job description

Description

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.

You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

The Incident Mitigation team is looking for experienced software engineers who are excited about building large scale systems spanning tens of thousands of servers, across multiple data‑centers worldwide. These are core systems development positions where you will own the design and development of significant software components critical to our industry‑leading database services architect‑ed for the cloud.

In this hands on position you will be asked to do everything from building rock‑solid components to mentoring other engineers. You need to not only be a top software developer with a good track record of delivering, but also excel in communication, leadership and customer focus. This is a unique and rare opportunity to get in on the ground floor within a fast growing business and help shape the technology, product and the business. A successful candidate will bring deep technical and software expertise and ability to work within a fast moving, startup environment in a large company to deliver high quality code that has a broad business impact.

Key job responsibilities

Our engineers collaborate across diverse teams, projects, and environments to have a firsthand impact on our global customer base. You’ll bring a passion for innovation, data, search, analytics, and distributed systems. You’ll also: solve challenging technical problems, often ones not solved before, at every layer of the stack; design, implement, test, deploy and maintain innovative software solutions to transform service performance, durability, cost, and security; build high‑quality, highly available, always‑on products; research implementations that deliver the best possible experiences for customers.

About The Team

The AWS Resilience Hub team builds and operates a GenAI‑powered service that helps customers continuously assess, test, and improve the resilience of their cloud workloads. We provide automated failure‑mode assessments powered by a multi‑agent AI architecture that delivers expert‑level resilience analysis across Multi‑AZ, Multi‑Region, EKS, and backup domains. Our team solves complex challenges at the intersection of distributed systems and generative AI to democratize resilience best practices for customers of all sizes. We’re passionate about helping organizations maintain their resilience posture in increasingly complex cloud environments.
