Software Development Engineer, SCARF

DESCRIPTION

The Demand Planning team builds software to forecast the amount of hardware needed to keep EC2 running as the world's favorite elastic cloud. Our work ensures that AWS customers never run out of cloud computing capacity!

We are looking for a Software Engineer to work in a full-stack development role.

AWS Utility Computing (UC) provides product innovations — from foundational services such as Amazon’s Simple Storage Service (S3) and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), to consistently released new product innovations that continue to set AWS’s services and features apart in the industry. As a member of the UC organization, you’ll support the development and management of Compute, Database, Storage, Internet of Things (IoT), Platform, and Productivity Apps services in AWS, including support for customers who require specialized security solutions for their cloud services.

Key job responsibilities
Our team owns a family of products that facilitate the generation, audit and publishing of Demand Plans that support the extensive AWS product portfolio. As a SDE, you will collaborate with research scientists and business subject matter experts to build and maintain a scalable planning platform, along with innovative models, that is capable of handling billions of time series data in real time. Our tools span Scala, Java, Python, JavaScript, Lambda, DynamoDB, and other leading-edge AWS services and tools. We don’t expect you to be an expert in (or be familiar with) all of the technologies listed above, but we want you to be excited to learn about them!

This position involves on-call responsibilities. We don’t like getting paged outside business hours, so we work to ensure that our systems are fault tolerant.


About the team
Our team puts a high value on work-life balance. While we do maintain core collaboration hours in the office, we also offer the flexibility to accommodate individual working styles. We've built a team culture that encourages knowledge sharing, and that celebrates openness, friendliness, collaboration, and the drive to "get things done".

We strongly believe in supporting new (and existing) members, and our team's broad mix of experience levels and tenures allow for a great deal of mentoring and learning opportunities. We care about your career growth; we do our best to assign projects to develop our team members into well-rounded professionals who are prepared take on tasks of increasing complexity as their career progresses.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform.

If your career is just starting, hasn’t followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don’t let it stop you from applying.

* Work/Life Balance
We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why flexible work hours and arrangements are part of our culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there’s nothing we can’t achieve in the cloud.

* Inclusive Team Culture
Here at AWS, it’s in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empower us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness.
