Key job responsibilities
You will provide software development support for a team of highly talented engineers that build and operate services that enable Commerce Platform (CP) to operate in isolated environments and enable customers to purchase AWS services while understanding and managing their cloud infrastructure costs.
Our engineering team support services running in air gapped regions that are often isolated from the public internet creating unique engineering challenges and opportunities for innovation. Our services enable AWS to bill and collect payments from customers even when operating in isolated regions.
The CP ADC Operations team provides support for the suite of Commerce Platform services operating in the ADC (air gapped) regions. Commerce Platform processes trillions of events per month from AWS services such as these to provide bill generation, payment processing, fraud prevention, customer usage, and analytics to both AWS customers and internal users. Because we sit at the nexus of all AWS services and interact directly with end-customers, we work closely with other AWS teams to ensure our customers are provided with a great experience.
A day in the life
As an SDE you will:
- Provide our customers with a great experience.
- Drive engineering effort, implementation, and deployments that meet functional, performance, scalability, and reliability requirements while adhering to software development principles and best practices.
- Work closely with team members to architect and develop the best technical designs and approaches.
- Foster a culture of continuous engineering improvement through mentoring, feedback, and metrics.
- Learn AWS system architecture and be responsible for diving deep into code.
- Own all operational metrics and support for your software.
- Evangelize operational excellence by leading operation reviews, documenting best practices, and prioritizing automation and infrastructure as code initiatives.
- Distill and communicate technical concepts to the team and other stakeholders.
