Ireland Amazon Full time
Software Development Engineer, Capacity Delivery Systems

Amazon’s network is a key differentiator for Amazon Cloud Computing and Web Services (AWS), enabling the global operation of thousands of applications across millions of servers worldwide. The AWS Networking team develops and operates the network platform for all of Amazon including e-commerce products and cloud computing solutions. This platform is industry-leading for its efficiency, throughput and reliability, and it is critical to the success of hundreds of thousands of AWS customers.

We have developed and maintained a wide gamut of tools to help scale our network seamlessly and automatically. We are now facing the next challenge: providing a software ecosystem capable of amalgamating all tools, operations, and procedures in a single manageable, scalable, automated entity.

The ideal candidate will be clearly passionate about the large opportunity for software innovation that Amazon’s network presents and about web services in general. This person has thrived and succeeded in delivering high-quality solutions in a hyper-growth environment where priorities shift fast. If you're looking to solve challenging technical problems and create great products that protect and enhance customer availability, then we would like to talk to you.

At Capacity Delivery Services, we are responsible for deploying network capacity in an unconstrained, redundant, and timely way. We are intensively focused on building mechanisms and automation to enable our operations to Zero Touch (ZT) scale our network across all the core networking space.

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.

Key Job Responsibilities

In this role, you will be part of a two-pizza team in an org of 100+ engineers. As a software development engineer, you will:

  1. Help establish technical direction, foster team culture, grow junior engineers and deliver exciting features to internal and external customers.
  2. Take end-to-end ownership of the software development life cycle. This includes design, testing, deployment, and operating.
  3. Be very hands-on; work with the engineering team to manage the day-to-day development activities by leading architecture decisions, participating in designs, design review, code review, and implementation.
  4. Champion operational, technical, and process improvements.
  5. Work with your manager and other engineers in delivering to the roadmap.
  6. Interact with customers to respond to queries, issues, and complaints.
A Day in the Life

You will have the opportunity to design and implement systems that delight our customers. You will also learn how things are built and deployed in AWS, brush up on operational excellence, and apply it on the job

  1. Collaborate with other engineers towards broader organizational goals and projects.
  2. Collaborate with product and program managers, principal engineers for feature definition and delivery.
  3. Work with other AWS teams to build innovative solutions that create value for our customers, supporting them in their network deployment activities.
  4. Contribute to technical designs.
About the Team

AWS values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn’t followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don’t let it stop you from applying.

Why AWS?

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating — that’s why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses.

Inclusive Team Culture

Here at AWS, it’s in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empowers us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness.

Mentorship & Career Growth

We’re continuously raising our performance bar as we strive to become Earth’s Best Employer. That’s why you’ll find endless knowledge-sharing, mentorship, and other career-advancing resources here to help you develop into a better-rounded professional.

Work/Life Balance

We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why we strive for flexibility as part of our working culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there’s nothing we can’t achieve in the cloud.

Minimum Requirements

- Experience programming with at least one modern language such as Java, C++, or C# including object-oriented design.

- Experience building complex software systems that have been successfully delivered to customers.

- Experience designing or architecting (design patterns, reliability, and scaling) of new and existing systems.

- Experience with full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations.

- Knowledge of professional software engineering & best practices for full software development life cycle, including coding standards, software architectures, code reviews, source control management, continuous deployments, testing, and operational excellence.

- Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent.
