System Development Engineer

Would you like to be an engineer that builds the cloud, rather than an engineer that just uses it? At AWS, our engineers look after the behind-the-scenes software and tools that make the world's largest cloud computing infrastructure possible. We have an amazing opportunity for you to join a world-class network team in a dynamic environment that has the feel of a start-up. As a system development engineer you will help to deploy, manage, fix and reinvent the software tools, services and components that network engineering rely on to automate our network and keep it operational. You will actively be involved in innovating new software solutions to solve the challenges of operating the AWS network. Your internal customers are your network engineer colleagues, and through close collaboration, support and exchange of ideas, we share a common goal to serve our external customers and grow through learning and innovation. If you are exceptionally motivated and passionate about the work you do then we welcome you to join us, working in an agile environment with the most advanced tools, processes and talented people in the industry to make the cloud a reality.

What you'll be working on:

• Simplifying and reinventing systems, processes, and tools to make things better for our customers
• Developing and growing innovative, production-quality tools to solve real operational problems for our network
• Investigating technical issues scientifically and thoroughly, and assist in fixing them so they don't repeat
• Providing technical solutions to real business problems in a global organization

Key job responsibilities:

• A sysde is responsible for maintaining their team's services, requiring them to troubleshoot and identify the root cause of issues that arise within their systems. They will utilize existing testing, monitoring, and validation tools on their services and infrastructure to ensure their team can continuously deploy new versions with minimal interruption. A sysde will contribute to automation improvements and tools to reduce manual operations, to fulfill the requirements of the business and their customers.
