Job summary

Amazon Development Center U.S., Inc. in Boston seeks a Software Development Manager for the EBS Server Agility team to lead CI and deployment/patching engineers. You will define goals, drive technical direction, and ensure reliable, scalable delivery across the fleet.

You will mentor engineers, hire talent, and shape the roadmap in a high-visibility AWS environment, balancing speed with safety and quality.

Qualifications

• 3+ years of engineering team management experience.
• 7+ years of engineering experience.
• 5+ years of non-internship professional software development experience.
• Experience with full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations, or experience in developing and deploying LLMs in production on GPUs, Neuron, TPU or other AI acceleration hardware.

Responsibilities

• Lead, hire, develop, and promote a team of software engineers across the CI and Deployments.
• Own and set the technical direction and roadmap across both the CI platform and the deployment and patching systems, and be accountable for how they work together.
• Deliver a CI platform that answers 'is this change safe to deploy to 400,000 servers,' including distributed test orchestration, intelligent test selection, and observability across x86 and Graviton.
• Deliver deployment pipelines and automated security patching that safely update a stateful storage engine across all AWS regions and partitions with zero customer impact and manifest consistency on a biweekly cadence.
• Drive toward secure, autonomous operations: automated canary analysis, rollback, anomaly detection, and self-healing automation that takes the operator out of the loop.
• Own operational health across both domains: on-call, patch compliance, and the cadences that keep the fleet green.
• Define goals tied to business needs and deliver them predictably, building mechanisms so the team ships consistently.
• Lead the team through change with clarity and empathy, and influence technical direction beyond your immediate team.
