Job Information
Amazon Senior Software Development Engineer, NAE - Network Observability in Dublin, Ireland
Description
Amazon is looking for Sr. Software Development Engineers to build the software that observes one of the world’s largest and most complex networks. Tens of millions of customers rely on Amazon’s network for using our retail websites, accessing content on their Kindles and building applications and businesses on top of Amazon Web Services (AWS). Our goal is to become The Infrastructure Platform for the world – achieving this goal requires high-leverage, massively scalable software systems. Our success depends on our world-class network infrastructure, and our network depends on our Network Observability team.
AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.
You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.
Key job responsibilities
You are interested in being part of a high-bar team with global responsibility for the Network Observability software used across all of Amazon’s businesses.
Solving problems at scale excites you.
You do not implement specs from analysts and architects – you talk to your customers and design solutions to their problems. You automate and innovate.
You do not push just one technology agenda – you choose the best tool for the problem at hand.
You believe that the craft of software engineering is about writing code right the first time. For you, code reviews and automated testing are not chores – they are a core part of writing great software.
You do not throw your code over the wall. You launch it, own it, support it and make it incrementally better for the benefit of your customers.
You enjoy working in a flexible, fast-paced, collaborative team environment.
