1 month ago
DESCRIPTION
Amazon Web Services Direct Connect is a unique software defined network that provides customers with a dedicated network connection from their on-premise network to the cloud. Building and scaling the largest customer facing network in the world comes with unique challenges, and we are always looking for solid engineers to assist us in this endeavor. We’re looking for systems development engineers who have experience in system engineering, system automation, operational posturing, and system analysis.
In AWS Direct Connect, we are looking for a System Development Engineer to help us scale systems and tools that our customers use. Our goal is to eliminate human intervention and errors from network engineering services, including initial deployment and sustaining operations. We look for innovative ways to automate and scale our network as we expand, while driving complex issues to resolution. In this role, you will own the development and improvement of configuration deployment systems and pipelines, build automation systems, and systems integration components across a complex and interconnected tool ecosystem, enabling network engineering teams to improve service delivery and continually scale the network. We want someone who’s enthusiastic about the potential of cloud computing, networking and about creating simple, robust system management systems. The ideal candidate will have passion and talent for solving complex problems of scalability and availability in a massively distributed system.
You'll be part of a world-class team in a fast-paced environment that has the entrepreneurial feel of a start-up. This is an opportunity to operate and engineer systems on a massive scale, and to gain top-notch experience in software defined networking and cloud computing. You'll be surrounded by people who are smart, passionate about cloud computing and believe that world class service is critical to customer success. You will work alongside some of the best software and network development engineers in the world, helping to continue design and deliver the Direct Connect product.
