Embedded Software Development Engineer II (C/C++), EC2 Nitro Instance Networking

Job description

Do you want to shape the future of virtualized (SDN) networking in the world’s biggest public cloud?

The Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) Instance Networking team owns the packet pipeline that runs right beneath all our customer's EC2 VPC instances, adding features like firewalling (security groups), billing and monitoring as we touch every single packet on every single host across our massive worldwide fleet. Our vision is to combine the performance of bare metal networking while maintaining all the benefits of the cloud, including delivering features not possible on bare metal i.e. true Software Defined Networking (SDN).

We are looking for a Embedded Software Development Engineer II (C/C++) to help build our next generation of automation and analytics services to help scale AWS VPC. In this role, you will be part of a team that builds scalable frameworks and highly available services to automate fault detection (e.g. test failures, crashes, network performance degradation), remediation strategies, data warehouse analytics, and data visualizations across a large organization.

This will require a thorough understanding of AWS networking components, back-end software development using a variety of AWS services, full-stack web development, and familiarity with exciting computer science fields such as machine learning and real-time data processing of time series data. You will also have the opportunity to impact and influence a wide range of teams across EC2 by developing frameworks used in validation of end-customer workloads on both production and pre-production environments.
