SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT ENGINEER

Job description

DESCRIPTION

Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) is storage for the Internet. Through the use of pioneering techniques in distributed computing, developers are able to durably store their data on Amazon's proven computing infrastructure to achieve virtually limitless storage capacity at minimal cost. Amazon S3 provides a simple web services interface and web UI that can be used to store and retrieve any amount of data, at any time, from anywhere on the web. It gives any developer access to the same highly scalable, reliable, secure, fast, inexpensive infrastructure that Amazon uses to run its own global network of web sites. The service aims to maximize benefits of scale and to pass those benefits on to developers.
We're looking for a Software Development Engineer to drive technology for the fast growing Amazon S3 Console team. As a lead engineer in this area, you will focus on the challenges of writing software and designing user experiences to handle the vast array of use cases that customers use on S3 today. You will dig into the UIX details of new object API features one week, and will drive design for new S3 storage analytic visualizations the next. You will brainstorm new UI experiences that break ground in enabling new enterprise workloads on S3. You will own innovations in securing workloads that come into S3's front door. You will mentor a group of engineers from the ground up to build solutions that impact a wide swath of customers with a focus on high standards in coding, testing, and delivery.
