Description du poste

Build the systems that bring Amazon's newest servers to life. As a Systems Development Engineer on EC2 Core Platforms Engineering, you'll work at the seam between hardware and software to launch new compute platforms, keep the core fleet healthy at massive scale, and automate the way we build.

We own the quality, performance, and reliability of the platforms that host EC2 instances, from lab bring-up through general availability. You'll bring up and validate new EC2 server platforms, working hands-on with Nitro firmware, operating systems, and provisioning, then diagnose and reduce failures across the core fleet to drive reliability. A big part of the role is building the automation, including AI-driven tooling, that makes platform launches faster, safer, and more repeatable.

You'll collaborate across hardware engineering, Annapurna, and the Nitro component teams, working on some of the largest compute fleets in the world, where a single improvement in reliability or build automation compounds across millions of hosts.
