Software Engineer
At Amazon Web Services Identity and Access Management (AWS IAM) we build, operate, and innovate the identity management, authentication, and authorization stack for the AWS cloud. Our mission is to push the technical boundaries to enable AWS customers to run their business workloads confidently and securely. As part of this mission, we Think Big and Dive Deep as we leverage technology to give customers state-of-the-art controls to manage access across all their AWS environments. At IAM, we operate one of the largest distributed systems in the world, which processes tens of millions of transactions per second. With the growth of AWS, the customer workloads and access patterns keep evolving, demanding the next order of magnitude scalability. We are looking for a talented software engineer who is passionate about taking on complex problems and creating scalable, maintainable solutions at massive scale.
Key job responsibilities include design and implementation of complex system components while maintaining an uncompromising bar on quality and supporting less experienced members of the team in growing in their craft. A day in the life involves designing and coding solutions to help our team drive efficiencies in software architecture, creating metrics, implementing automation and other improvements, and resolving the root cause of software defects. You'll also build high-impact solutions to deliver to our large customer base, participate in design discussions, code review, and communicate with internal and external stakeholders. You'll work cross-functionally to help drive business decisions with your technical input and work in a fast-paced development environment, where you're always working on the most important stuff.
