Description

C2 Catalyst is the team responsible to build one of Earth's largest distributed systems - EC2 - at scale. We own the software and tooling to build the foundation of the cloud in new Regions and Availability zones and our team is growing to support a senior leadership strategic initiative. AWS is the industry leader in Cloud Computing. We enable our customers to dynamically scale their computing capacity as needed. Their sky is the limit! You will have the opportunity to implement tooling that interacts with a broad set of EC2 services ensuring we can build one EC2 at scale.

Work/Life Balance

Our team puts a high value on work-life balance. It isn’t about how many hours you spend at home or at work; it’s about the flow you establish that brings energy to both parts of your life. We believe striking the right balance between your personal and professional life is critical to life-long happiness and fulfillment. We offer flexibility in working hours and encourage you to find your own balance between your work and personal lives.

This position involves on-call responsibilities, typically for one week every two months. We don’t like getting paged in the middle of the night or on the weekend, so we work to ensure that our systems are fault tolerant. When we do get paged, we work together to resolve the root cause so that we don’t get paged for the same issue twice.

Mentorship & Career Growth

Our team is dedicated to supporting new members. We have a broad mix of experience levels and tenures, and we’re building an environment that celebrates knowledge sharing and mentorship. Our senior members enjoy one-on-one mentoring and thorough, but kind, code reviews. We care about your career growth and strive to assign projects based on what will help each team member develop into a better-rounded engineer and enable them to take on more complex tasks in the future.
