Amazon
Software Development Engineer, EC2 VPC
Amazon, Virginia, Minnesota, United States, 55792
Job ID: 2835528 | Amazon Web Services, Inc.Amazon Web Services is looking for an experienced software development engineer to help define and build the future of cloud computing! This position is a developer role with an EC2 VPC team based in Herndon, VA.
Come join a team engineering core software supporting the massive AWS cloud. We are software engineers and systems development engineers that deliver some of the core EC2 network virtualization systems. The domain is networking, but it’s all about software. Our engineers work in everything from low-level kernel code in C, to userspace in C++, applications in Java and Scala, and automation in Ruby/Python/etc. Our services range from ones responsible for metering all network usage across AWS (billions of records per hour), to low-level code delivering encrypted VPN connections, to large-scale web services allowing customers to reconfigure networks at their whim. We’re delivering “API defined networks” at scale. We are engaged in all parts of the software development lifecycle from defining to testing new features. We care about both delighting customers and building high-quality software. We don't sacrifice one for the other.
This position involves on-call responsibilities typically for two weeks every 2-3 months. The first week is primary and the second week is secondary on-call. We work to ensure our systems are fault tolerant. When we do get paged, we work together to resolve the root cause to prevent pages for the same issues twice.
We believe good code reviews raise our code quality, grow our technical acumen and provide opportunities to support and share knowledge within the team. We are responsible for supporting our own code in production and we take our code reviews seriously and ship code every day.
A majority of our team has been together for more than two years, and we have developed a strong sense of team trust during that time. We value work-life harmony, and support core working hours from 10am to 4pm Eastern. Our team is dedicated to supporting new team members and encourage curiosity. We are a team of mostly mid-level engineers who enjoy helping junior engineers grow through one-on-one mentoring and thorough, but kind, code reviews. We are looking for a new teammate who is enthusiastic, empathetic, curious, motivated and reliable; someone who will help us build on the team culture we have been cultivating.
We offer comprehensive relocation and benefit packages!
Key job responsibilitiesIn this role, you will be part of a two-pizza team in an org of 40+ engineers. You will help establish technical direction, foster team culture, grow junior engineers and deliver exciting features to internal and external customers.BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
- 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience- 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience- Experience programming with at least one software programming languagePREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- 3+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience- Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent- Knowledge of professional software engineering & best practices for full software development life cycle, including coding standards, software architectures, code reviews, source control management, continuous deployments, testing, and operational excellence- Experience building complex software systems that have been successfully delivered to customers- Experience contributing to the architecture and design (architecture, design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and current systems- Experience programming with at least one modern language such as Java, C++, or C# including object-oriented design
