## Job description

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.

### Key job responsibilities

S3 Request Shaping is tasked with building the next generation of services dedicated to bring Quality of Service to S3 Customers and balancing the wide variety of requests processed by S3. As a Software Development Engineer on the S3 Request Shaping Team you will contribute to key development projects integrating with S3 API's processing 100's of trillions of transactions per month. You will also build and enhance new services using distributed micro-services architectures and expert knowledge, pattern recognition, and machine learning techniques to analyze requests and autonomously mitigate undesired behavior at the massive scale of S3.

Engineers on this team must have a deep knowledge of computer science, a solid foundation in secure engineering practices, and a genuine desire to mentor and lead their more junior teammates.

### About the team

This role will sit in our new headquarters in Northern Virginia, where Amazon will invest $2.5 billion dollars, occupy 4 million square feet of energy efficient office space, and create at least 25,000 new full-time jobs. Our employees and the neighboring community will also benefit from the associated investments from the Commonwealth including infrastructure updates, public transportation improvements, and new access to Reagan National Airport.
