As a recently launched service based in NYC, this is your chance to work in a start-up like environment within the worlds most successful cloud business.

Customers tell us they want using data in the cloud to be as easy as it is to shop online; however with existing solutions it can take hundreds of hours to get access to and start using third-party data. AWS Data Exchange reduces that process to minutes so builders can jump straight to using data to solve problems.

AWS Data Exchange is looking for engineers to solve challenging problems and help evolve the service. As a Software Development Engineer on the AWS Data Exchange team, you will be a key contributor to the future direction and growth of the service.

Simply put, as a member of this team you will be given the opportunity to make fundamental contributions to the design and architecture of an AWS service while growing your own technical and professional skills.
