Key job responsibilities

WHAT DOES A SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT ENGINEER DO AT AMAZON?

On a typical day engineers might dive deep into understanding the root cause of customer issues, investigate why a metric is trending the wrong way, consult with top engineers at Amazon, or discuss radical new approaches to automate operational issues.

Our systems development engineering roles help engineers develop a broad range of skills. Experienced systems development engineers often have leadership impact on their teams by becoming subject matter experts on several services. They develop, build, deploy, operate, sustain, and grow the services in cloud production environments. They are able to utilize trends and metrics to identify opportunities for improvements. They help develop and refine procedures used by their team and internal customers. They are able to develop at a high standard and can deal with new and ambiguous problem domains, while consistently delivering customer impacting change.

A day in the life
Our systems development engineers spend time:

• Automating the world's most advanced cloud computing infrastructure
• Simplifying and reinventing systems, processes, and tools to make things better for our customers
• Building unique solutions to our customers’ technical problems
• Studying and learning from industry recognized Amazon senior and Principal engineers.
• Coaching, hiring and developing team members

We own our services and believe in making out-of-hours support as painless as possible.
