Job description

As part of the AWS Applied AI Solutions organization, we have a vision to provide business applications, leveraging Amazon’s unique experience and expertise, that are used by millions of companies worldwide to manage day-to-day operations. We will accomplish this by accelerating our customers’ businesses through delivery of intuitive and differentiated technology solutions that solve enduring business challenges. We blend vision with curiosity and Amazon’s real-world experience to build opinionated, turnkey solutions. Where customers prefer to buy over build, we become their trusted partner with solutions that are no-brainers to buy and easy to use.

The way the world works is undergoing enormous change. People are working on the go, and moving from one project to the next. And, they're collaborating across borders, time zones, and organizations. We built Amazon Web Services End User Computing (EUC) services to give companies the agility to respond to the changing needs of their workforce. Our vision is to be the best place for customers to run and access their desktops and apps from any device. As we continuously innovate to increase workforce productivity, we are looking for a software development engineer to build the services to realize that vision. More information about Amazon End-User Computing can be found here: https://aws.amazon.com/workspaces/

We are looking for a software development engineer who is excited by the unique challenges in this space, and who is able to think strategically as well as drive implementation. The successful candidate will have experience working with distributed teams and building services. Being able to look at the big picture, from both a business and technical perspective, is the key. This engineer will drive the development of services across different locations, influence the technical direction of the team, and work with many different technologies and disciplines.

Our team is constantly innovating, finding new ways of building massively scalable distributed systems. We set a high bar to build and deliver highly secure, highly available, and highly scalable systems. We are passionate about our customers, and love to solve their most critical problems. If you, just like us, enjoy working with a fun team that prides itself on a great work environment with an inclusive group of people, surround yourself with a highly talented pool of engineers that like to solve complex problems, join us.
