Description For Network Development Engineer - Telecom, Amazon Connect

Amazon Connect is a revolutionary cloud-based contact center service within AWS Solutions that enables businesses to deliver engaging, dynamic, and personal customer service experiences. This role represents an exciting opportunity to join the AWS Solutions organization, where we're focused on providing business applications that leverage Amazon's unique experience and expertise to serve millions of companies worldwide.

As a Network Development Engineer for Amazon Connect, you'll be at the forefront of developing next-generation telecom infrastructure crucial to modern cloud-based contact centers.

Amazon Connect supports a large volume of concurrent customer calls and active agents using an internally developed SIP-based call center platform. What makes this position unique is that we build most of our own equipment, requiring hands-on experience with SIP endpoint systems rather than just configuring commercial products.

  • Is passionate about solving real-world customer problems
  • Enjoys working in a collaborative, inclusive environment
  • Is customer-obsessed and eager to impact millions of users
  • Values continuous learning and taking on new challenges
