This role involves solving complex technical problems and building fault-tolerant, high-performance storage systems in the cloud. You will join the Elastic Block Storage organization to develop a new tier 1 AWS service aimed at enhancing the block storage experience for customers. The position emphasizes architecting large-scale distributed systems and improving resource utilization to reduce costs. You will work closely with an agile team that values quick iterations and high-quality product delivery.

Requirements

  • Experience as a mentor, tech lead, or leading an engineering team

  • Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent

Responsibilities

  • Architect large-scale distributed systems to improve availability and performance
  • Develop distributed systems that manage millions of hardware resources
  • Ensure the health of the overall storage system
  • Participate in on-call responsibilities to support AWS services
  • Collaborate with team members to maintain work/life balance while delivering high standards

Benefits

  • Employees at Amazon are often offered comprehensive health benefits—including multiple medical plan options (no pre-existing condition exclusions, 100% covered in-network preventive care), dental and vision plans, a 24/7 medical advice line from day one, expert second-opinion services, and broad mental-health support with several free counseling sessions (including pediatric). Financial wellness typically includes a 401(k) with company match (up to 2%), Restricted Stock Units (equity), FSAs, an emergency savings program, product and partner discounts, and even college-savings and home-purchase programs. Overall, the package is designed to support employees and their families’ health, finances, and day-to-day life.
