Software Development Engineer, Global Edge Compute Infrastructure Engineering
説明
The Global Edge Compute team is looking for a Software Development Engineer who is passionate, innovative, and has a strong drive to automate and simplify.
We are responsible for services that manage Amazon's edge compute fleet - millions of devices across thousands of locations. Our systems manage everything from cutting edge robotics systems in Austin, to delivery stations in Cairo. We deliver innovative technical solutions to facilitate the massive growth in Amazon compute capabilities around the globe.
Our team's mandate is to design, develop, and operate the next generation of device automation systems that allow for the provisioning and management of edge devices at Amazon scale. We're looking for entrepreneurial and innovative individuals who thrive on solving tough problems. We're building something that has never existed before - a unified means of provisioning, configuring, managing, and deploying onto disparate edge compute devices worldwide.
This is a high ownership role with significant scope. We value your ideas and are looking for people who want to help innovate.
Everyone on the team wears multiple hats and works in a highly collaborative environment. As an Amazon Software Development Engineer, you will help tackle a diverse landscape of technical challenges. We are a greenfield initiative, and you will play an active role in translating business requirements into concrete systems and prototyping concepts in partnership with technology leaders within the team and across the business.
You will design, develop and deploy reliable distributed solutions that operate at Amazon scale. You will work with a variety of core languages and technologies including Java, Python, Linux, and AWS services, including Greengrass and IoT. You will tackle challenging and novel situations every day and you will have the opportunity to work alongside talented Amazon engineers to redefine an industry. Along the way, we guarantee that you’ll learn a ton, have fun and make a positive impact on many people.
A successful engineer in this role:
- loves automation. Millions of devices cannot be managed as snowflakes so we automate everything.
- is highly analytical. You solve problems in ways that can be backed up with verifiable data. You focus on driving processes, tools, and statistical methods which support rational decision-making.
- is engaged by ambiguity. You're able to explore new problem spaces with unique constraints and thus non-obvious solutions.
You will identify problems and develop solutions. You embrace performance metrics and measurement techniques because they help you assess how well system-related services are running. You are customer-obsessed and think about what you can do to make their experience better.
You will be a role model for other talented engineers, develop their engineering capabilities, and guide them on making the correct technical decisions.
Key job responsibilities
- You will drive key engineering decisions that impact device management for Amazon fulfillment sites globally. If you’re passionate about developing robust, highly available, scalable automated systems, at tremendous scale, this is an excellent opportunity for you.
- You will partner with multiple Software Development Managers, robotics solutions engineers, Product Managers, Technical Program Managers, and customers to innovate in the compute automation space. Our group owns making compute automation scalable and seamless across the globe.
A day in the life
The engineer for this role will:
- Implement new software by designing, coding and launching global edge compute automation systems
- Design software solutions for emerging business use cases
- Partner with SDMs and PMs to gather requirements and define features
