Want to help define the future of serverless compute and make it effortless for customers to run petabyte-scale analytics workloads without managing infrastructure? Come join the Serverless Analytics Compute team in Amazon Athena!
We are building the compute orchestration platform that powers Amazon Athena today — and will power other analytics services tomorrow. Our platform abstracts away the complexity of provisioning, scaling, and managing distributed compute workers so customers get instant, elastic capacity without ever thinking about servers, clusters, or fleet management. We are building to manage millions of compute workers across multiple capacity providers, delivering instant compute for analytics workloads at massive scale.
In this role, you will have the opportunity to collaborate with senior and principal engineers who are domain experts at AWS. You'll develop deep expertise in areas like distributed systems, serverless compute orchestration, sub-second worker startup, multi-tenant resource isolation, and operational excellence at scale. You'll contribute to platform services that underpin some of AWS's highest-scale analytics offerings. You will enjoy competitive compensation and your contributions in this role will impact customers and businesses around the world.
Key job responsibilities
You’ll be responsible for designing, developing, testing and deploying some of our most strategic technical projects. You’ll deliver large-scale, high-performance production systems, design new software systems of distributed technology, and have a significant bottom-line impact on our business results. You will draw from your deep and broad technical expertise to mentor engineers, complete hands-on technical work and provide leadership on complex technical issues.
