Job Description

DESCRIPTION

Come and build solutions that enable digital transformation through connected devices!
The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to a system of physical devices - Alexa smart home devices, autonomous vehicles, smart manufacturing, self-monitoring medical devices, precision agriculture, sensor grids and more - that connect to the Internet. In the near future we will see billions of things that will be connected at a given time!

AWS Internet of Things (IoT) Analytics Services is a relatively new organization delivering higher-order IoT services to help customers integrate the benefits of IoT quickly, easily and cost effectively. We are focused on solving problems with data from connected devices. If you are fascinated by the endless possibilities unlocked when the power of cloud and ubiquitous connected devices are combined, we have the right role for you.

We are looking for an innovative, self-directed Software Development Engineer on a new initiative. The role will work with our team of engineers to devise and create full stack building blocks for an end-to-end experience for developers and systems operators alike. The successful candidate should have exceptional problem solving skills, an ability to think big about product operator experience, exude strong business judgment, and have demonstrated experience driving cross-functional teams. Most importantly, we are looking for someone that is passionate about customer experience. We are committed to delivering a simple, enjoyable, and powerful service for our customers!

Building a High-Performing & Inclusive Team Culture
You should be passionate about attracting & developing a world-class team that welcomes, celebrates, and leverages a diverse set of backgrounds and skillsets to deliver results. Driving results through others is your primary responsibility, and doing so in a way that builds on our inclusive culture is key to our long term success.

Work/Life Balance
We value work-life balance. Were flexible when people occasionally need to work from home. We generally keep core in-office hours from 10am to 5pm. We are builder-operators of our services at AWS and have a modest on-call rotation where youll participate approximately once every 2 months. We dont like getting paged in the middle of the night or on the weekend, so we work to ensure that our systems are fault tolerant. When we do get paged, we work together to resolve the root cause so that we dont get paged for the same issue twice. This is incredibly important to us because a stable operational load is indicative of high service reliability for our customers.

Mentorship & Career Growth
Our team is dedicated to supporting new team members. Our team has a broad mix of experience levels and Amazon tenures, and were building an environment that celebrates knowledge sharing and mentorship. Were committed to the growth and development of every member of IoT.
