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.
API Gateway is the front-door of the Serverless revolution, an approach that lets customers turn business logic and application code into scalable, fault-tolerant production solutions without requiring every developer to become an expert in deployment technologies and infrastructure management. API Gateway turns daunting tasks such as traffic management, authentication, authorization, metering, monitoring, and API versioning into easily configurable steps.
We are hiring engineering leaders who have a passion for reducing the time it takes for developers to ship scalable code. In this role, you will grow a diverse team of talented engineers. You will own the development lifecycle of existing services supporting that, partnering with product management to enhance the customer experience. You will work with engineers to deliver scalable and latency sensitive software on time. You will set standards for the team, and drive an inclusive culture.
If you are excited about cloud computing and architecting highly available and large-scale services used by millions of users, then join us in making the Serverless revolution ubiquitous.
