Easter Seals Jobs

Description

Are you a Software Engineer who is passionate about building tools that help operators observe their services, improve their awareness, and make better decisions? Does the idea of working with big streaming data using the latest and greatest AWS technologies excite you? Do you want to design and build software that improves cloud operations at global scale? Then come join AWS Managed Operations' Metrics, Monitoring and Awareness (MMA) Team!

Your typical day will involve lots of coding, system design, problem solving, design reviews, and various operational tasks.

Our engineers use the latest and greatest AWS technologies to build cloud-native solutions that collect and process hundreds of millions of events from across all AWS to generate insights on operational practices and risks for AWS service teams. As part of our team, you’ll be challenged to think outside the box and not only meet the needs of our customers today, but to predict and create what they’ll need in the future. You’ll have the opportunity to tackle big technical problems and push the boundaries on what’s possible for cloud computing operations.

You will collaborate closely with software engineers, data scientists, business analysts, site reliability engineers, front-end engineers, technical program managers and other roles across AWS to create new metrics, ops monitoring and ops visualizations solutions that help all Amazonians build, deploy and operate their services reliably across all AWS regions according Well-Architected Operational Excellence best practices.

We take code reviews seriously. We believe thorough and respectful code reviews raise our code quality, grow our technical acumen, and provide opportunities to support and share knowledge with each other. When you’re ready, you will have on-call responsibilities, typically for one week every two months. No one likes getting paged in the middle of the night or on the weekend, so we work hard to ensure that our systems are fault tolerant and resilient. When we do get paged, we work together to resolve the root cause of the issue so that we never get paged for the same issue twice.

This position requires that the candidate selected be a U.S. citizen.
