Senior Software Dev Engineer, AWS Alameda

Job title: Senior Software Dev Engineer, AWS Alameda

Company: Amazon

Job description: DESCRIPTIONAlameda is a team of world-class software development engineers responsible for shaping the future of internal Control Plane engineering across AWS. We build innovative and secure technologies on a massive scale to help keep AWS services secure and scalable for their customers at launch. As a software development engineer on this team, you will leverage modern technologies and AWS services to empower AWS service teams to be more productive.You are a software developer who likes to deliver software solutions that solve business problems and delight your customers with efficiency and productivity gains. You have development experience with technologies like AWS, Java, TypeScript, CDK, and DynamoDB, though you don’t need experience with all of those to start.AWS service teams spend a significant amount of their time and development effort on creating, maintaining and improving their Control Plane software. Because of this, the cost of offering a new piece of software as a managed service is often orders of magnitude higher than simply creating the new software. The AWS Alameda team mission is to centralize this work into a single team and product, saving each of these many AWS teams the majority of the cost of creating, maintaining and improving Control Planes.Alameda automates the creation and maintenance of infrastructure and software for both the Control Plane and the Data Plane of newly managed services. It uses a core services (building blocks) and extension (plugins) approach to allow features to be enabled, and custom business logic to be implemented. Alameda is responsible for updating and maintaining the core building blocks, and our customers (new AWS services) are responsible for maintaining their extension code. Alameda provides tools for deploying and monitoring those updates. Alameda also provides pre-built kits, which are collections of building blocks that work together to provide a full AWS service experience.Our team puts a high value on work-life balance. Striking a healthy balance between your personal and professional life is crucial to your happiness and success here, which is why we aren’t focused on how many hours you spend at work or online.
