Come build the future of data streaming with the Amazon Managed Streaming for Kafka (MSK) team!
We are seeking builders for our Amazon MSK service, a fully managed
service that makes it easy for customers to build and run applications
that use Apache Kafka to process streaming data. We are looking for
engineers who are enthusiastic about data streaming, and are as
passionate about contributing to open source as they are about solving
real customers' business needs, at AWS scale.
As a member of the Amazon MSK team, you will be making contributions to the entire core data plane stack that make up the MSK service, the core Kafka platform, and stand-alone tools that make it
easier for Kafka community to operate Kafka better. Upstream
compatibility is a core tenet of MSK. Your code changes to the Kafka
platform will be released back to open source. As a member of an AWS
service that builds on top of a popular open source technology, this is a
unique opportunity to work on a team that straddles both worlds – open
source and Amazon-internal software. You will design and build new
features, make performance improvements, identify and investigate new
technologies, prototype solutions, build scalable services, and test and
review changes, to deliver an exceptional customer experience.
The ideal candidate has experience designing large-scale systems
supporting millions of transactions per second, enjoys solving complex
software problems, and possesses analytical, design and problem-solving
skills. Ideally you have an in-depth understanding of streaming data
technologies like Amazon Kinesis or Apache Kafka, and experience with
open-source data processing frameworks like Apache Spark, Apache Flink,
or Apache Storm. Your responsibilities will include collaborating with
other engineers to build a large scale AWS service, and work with senior
leaders to define your team's roadmap, including identifying design and
code changes needed in the underlying open source platforms.
