Build and scale AWS Infrastructure as Code services, provider development tools, and CloudFormation capabilities.

software-developmentinfrastructure-as-codedistributed-systems
AWS Infrastructure as Code (IaC) helps customers to easily and efficiently adopt AWS services while ensuring that their applications run safely in the cloud. We develop services and client software, including CloudFormation, Cloud Control API, and the Cloud Development Kit (CDK), that empower customers to spin up infrastructure across AWS at unprecedented scale.

The IaC provisioning team provides the building blocks for customers to scale and grow their use of AWS services and third-party solutions. With the CloudFormation CLI and Resource Provider Development Kit (RPDK), we enable AWS service teams and third-party developers to build a standardized resource-based interface to their services and provide access to customers via the CloudFormation Registry. From there, we make it easy for developers to discover each resource's capabilities and build solutions to manage infrastructure at AWS scale.

We are looking for an experienced Software Development Engineer to join our team. The ideal candidate is excited about the incredible opportunity that cloud computing represents, thrives when presented with complex new challenges, and can serve as a strong mentor for other engineers as the team grows. As a member of our team, you'll work alongside outstanding engineers and leaders, refine product requirements with product managers, define architecture, and be a leader in the implementation and launch of software.

All team members actively participate in product definition, technical architecture review, iterative development, code review, and operations. This is your chance to think big, fail fast, learn even faster, and iterate quickly to launch.

Key job responsibilities
This is a hands-on position in which you will own everything from end to end: requirements gathering, designs, design reviews, implementations, code reviews, incremental feature launches, operations, mentoring, and the driving of continuous improvement.
You solve difficult problems, applying appropriate technologies and best practices.
You work with your team to invent, design and build software that is stable and performant.
You are proficient in a broad range of design approaches and know when it is appropriate to use them (and when it is not). Your solutions are pragmatic.
You consider the legacy of the code you produce and write code that an SDE unfamiliar with the system can understand.
You limit the use of short-term workarounds. You do things with the proper level of complexity the first time (or at least minimize incidental complexity).
You create flexible software without over-engineering. You make appropriate trade-offs, re-use where possible, and are judicious about introducing dependencies.
You are efficient with resource usage (e.g., system hardware, database, memory/CPU, etc.)

Questions you could be asked

  1. Tell me about a project where software development was part of your work. What did you do?
  2. Tell me about a project where infrastructure as code was part of your work. What did you do?
  3. Tell me about a project where distributed systems was part of your work. What did you do?
  4. What's a project where you used Aws hands-on?
  5. Walk me through how you've used Cloudformation in your day-to-day work.

Adapt your resume

  • List these exact terms on your resume: Software Development, Infrastructure As Code, Distributed Systems, Aws, and Cloudformation. An applicant tracking system matches the wording, not the idea.
  • Attach one line of real, concrete experience to at least one of them — a tool named with nothing behind it rarely survives a human read.
