DESCRIPTION

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.

You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

Amazon Route 53 is a highly available and scalable Domain Name System
(DNS) service offered by Amazon Web Services. We operate in over 50
locations worldwide and provide advanced functionality such as latency-
based routing (LBR), Private DNS, Geo DNS routing, DNS failover, and
integration with a plethora of AWS services. On top of that, we offer fast
change propagation with a 100% availability SLA. Our service is quickly
growing and we're expanding in multiple directions: adding new features and
functionality to our DNS services, better traffic management, new AWS
integrations, improving our health check capabilities, and expanding with
new services in the naming and routing space.

Amazon Route 53 team works on deep, technical problems that span a
variety of core topics in computer science ranging from databases to
networking to distributed systems to numerical analysis to security. Our
team has onsite and offsite engineers who collaborate remotely majority of
the time. We are looking for a software development engineer who will lead
the team and who feels strongly not only about building good software but
also about running that software in the real world.


In the Amazon Route 53 team we like to “work backwards”: start by
understanding what customers need and using that to guide our software
engineering. We are looking for a software development engineer who is
experienced in listening to customers, synthesizing their needs, and rapidly
iterating our services to quickly put features into customers’ hands by
collaborating remotely with teams. Our best ideas become even better when
we get feedback from real customer use. The sooner we can get that
feedback, the more quickly we can grow.


Amazon is a fast-paced environment where we “Work Hard, Have Fun, Make
History.” We offer an inclusive team culture, work / life balance and
mentorship and guidance for your career growth.


Inclusive Team Culture - Here at AWS, we embrace our differences. We are
committed to furthering our culture of inclusion. We have twelve employee-
led affinity groups, reaching 40,000 employees in over 190 chapters globally.
We have innovative benefit offerings, and we host annual and ongoing
learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity
(CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences. Amazon’s culture of
inclusion is reinforced within our 14 Leadership Principles, which remind
team members to seek diverse perspectives, learn and be curious, and earn
trust.


Work/Life Balance - Our team also puts a high value on work-life balance.
Striking a healthy balance between your personal and professional life is
crucial to your happiness and success here, which is why we aren’t focused
on how many hours you spend at work or online. Instead, we’re happy to
offer a flexible schedule so you can have a more productive and well-
balanced life—both in and outside of work.


Mentorship & Career Growth - Our team is dedicated to supporting new
members. We have a broad mix of experience levels and tenures, and we’re
building an environment that celebrates knowledge sharing and mentorship.
We care about your career growth and strive to assign projects based on
what will help each team member develop into a better-rounded professional
and enable them to take on more complex tasks in the future.
