Senior SW Development Engineer, Network Lifecycle Management, Configuration ServicesDESCRIPTION
At Amazon Web Services (AWS), we run one of the largest networks in the world supporting the AWS Cloud globally. In order to manage this unimaginable scale, we are driving revolutionary changes to the way networks are conceived, designed, built and operated. We put services and algorithms in place to control and manage all layers of the Amazon network, from top of the rack switches (TORs) to our internet and private backbone facing routers. This software ecosystem must be intelligent, scalable and fault tolerant. Our vision is to ultimately have self-managed networks and our Network Lifecycle Management (NLM) organization is responsible for building key services that will enable this vision.
We are establishing a team of engineers that would build a set of foundational network services that form a core part of our Software Defined Networking (SDN) ecosystem. The main focus of the team will be to design and own a closed-loop system for the reservation of network entities associated to procurement activities. This service is vital for closing the gap between network capacity planning and our network automation systems. It is a crucial step towards our vision of a truly self-managed and adaptive network.
We are looking for smart, talented software engineers who want to get hands-on experience with fully automated hyperscale data center networks, cloud infrastructure, large-scale software deployments, algorithms, distributed systems, and service-oriented architectures (SOA). This is an excellent opportunity for both experienced and new Software Development Engineers wanting to solve some of the hard problems associated with config generation, modeling and storage at an extreme scale. No prior Networking experience required. In fact, we are looking for members with strong software services background to spearhead development of highly reliable scalable services.
