Managing trillions of objects in storage, retrieving them in ms, building software that deploys to tens of thousands of hosts, designed for 99.999999999% durability. These are just a few of the numbers that give you a sense of the scale of the exciting problems you will find every day working in Simple Storage Service (S3). Amazon S3 powers businesses across the globe that make the lives of consumers better daily. Whether its electronic content delivered to your home, technology that betters your remote working experience, allows you to plan travel to exotic places or simply get stuff delivered to your home. As a Software Development Engineer in S3, you get to deliver these capabilities and delight our customers through teams of talented engineers and leaders.

We are currently looking for talented software development engineers to lead innovation in our Amazon S3 storage control plane team. Our team is passionate about the incredible opportunity that Amazon S3 presents and about cloud computing, in general. You will have the opportunity to deliver high quality technology products/services in a hyper-growth environment where priorities shift fast. Responsibilities include:
- Design, implementation, deployment and maintenance of innovative software solutions to deliver new features in performance, cost, reliability.
- Use software engineering best practices to ensure the standard of quality of all team deliverables.
- Build and implement high quality distributed system software.
- Work in an agile development environment prioritizing most important and impactful projects.

Key job responsibilities
As an SDE in S3's Storage team, you will build the services that persist and retrieve customer data. The services you will own are the foundation of S3, and managing them at the scale of S3 provides challenging technical problems that you will solve. That scale provides leverage for your work to improve the experience of many customers, and you will tackle some of the most difficult problems in S3 head-on. You will be responsible for the design and implementation of new components and improvements to services within our space, and will work with other engineers on your team to deliver.

In AWS, if you build it, you own it. S3 is a highly available 24x7 worldwide service requiring dedicated support from our engineering teams. We pride ourselves on a high level of ownership in the work we do. This means we hold a high bar for test automation, verification processes, design, and code reviews to ensure that our systems meet the exacting standards we demand in service of our customers. We maintain a regular on-call rotation across our teams with engineers and managers all taking part to resolve the inevitable issues that arise. We work hard to minimize getting paged in the middle of the night as we recognize that operator intervention should be a last line of defense rather than the default option.

A day in the life
A typical day for an SDE in S3 Storage is based around writing code and solving problems at scale. On any given day, you may spend time delivering features and fixing bugs, add testing to existing code, improve operational tooling, collaborate with senior engineers to design new components that shape the future of the system, and build expertise in specific areas of the service and grow to be a subject matter expert in your domain.
