Senior Software Development Engineer, Network Observability - Active MonitoringDESCRIPTION
Amazon is looking for Sr. Software Development Engineers to build the software that observes one of the world's largest and most complex networks. Tens of millions of customers rely on Amazon's network for using our retail websites, accessing content on their Kindles and building applications and businesses on top of Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Scalability and performance are key, as is ensuring the system's operability and reliability - when our monitoring system is down, so is our visibility into the network. Your work will be critical to keeping Amazon's network up and running 24/7.

Your strategic insights will guide leadership decisions, ensuring our monitoring system not only meets today's demands but sets the standard for tomorrow. This is your opportunity to lead, innovate, and be at the forefront of network monitoring at Amazon.
