AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. We're looking for a Software Development Engineer to join our team and help build the next generation of the AWS Direct Connect service.

AWS Direct Connect makes it easy for customers to establish a dedicated network connection from their premises to the AWS cloud.

  • Creating scalable, fault-tolerant distributed systems
  • Designing and coding solutions for broadly defined problems
  • Defining and achieving performance metrics
  • Participating in on-call rotation to support services
  • Mentoring teammates and helping them grow their technical skills

As a team member, you will:

  • Identify features and enhancements for long-term vision
  • Design, build, and maintain large-scale next-generation networks
  • Work on data plane and control plane software, network design and implementation
  • Troubleshoot issues and engage with other engineering teams
  • Drive deep dives for large-scale events and deliver high-quality documentation
  • Mentor peers to embrace ownership and operational excellence

AWS values diverse experiences and encourages candidates from all backgrounds to apply. The team fosters an inclusive culture through employee-led affinity groups and ongoing learning experiences.

This role offers opportunities for mentorship, career growth, and work-life harmony. AWS is committed to becoming Earth's Best Employer and provides flexible work arrangements to support employees both at work and at home.
