Software Dev Engineer II, AWS Transfer Family

Job description

AWS Transfer Family (launched at re: Invent 2018) is looking for talented engineers with a passion for solving challenging problems to join the team and help us take the service to the next level. AWS Transfer Family is a fully managed service supporting file transfers over different file transfer protocols for AWS Storage Services like Amazon S3. AWS Transfer Family helps customers seamlessly migrate file transfer workflows to AWS, freeing customers from managing, operating and securing their own file transfer solution.

Customers can easily create file transfer endpoints that allow their business partners to easily send files directly to AWS Storage such as AWS S3. We are looking for a team member to understand the B2B file transfer and transactional needs of enterprises across key verticals and geographies as they migrate to the cloud and what new file transfer products and features we should build to accelerate such migrations and unlock value from AWS integrations.

A day in the life

What makes this role exciting is that every day brings new challenges as customer workloads grow and technology evolves. Much of your time will be hands-on with our systems.

You might be:

* Designing and writing code to delight our customers to deliver an impactful feature, adding optimization functions to scale the performance and so on.

* Diving into data to make design decisions or measure effectiveness of changes you make.

* Debugging complex distributed systems issues that require careful analysis and creative problem-solving.

* Review proposals and code from peers from the team as well as partner teams.

About the team

Our team is dedicated to supporting new team members. Our team has a broad mix of experience levels and Amazon tenures, and we’re building an environment that celebrates knowledge sharing and mentorship. Our senior engineers truly enjoy mentoring more junior engineers and engineers from non-traditional backgrounds through one-on-one mentoring and thorough, but kind, code reviews.

We care about your career growth. We try to assign projects and tasks based on what will help each team member develop into a better-rounded engineer and enable them to take on more complex tasks in the future.
