Job Description
Description AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) enables customers to secure their workloads in the cloud by providing authentication and authorization mechanisms. With the growth of AWS, the workloads and access patterns keep evolving, demanding the next order of magnitude scalability. We are looking for strong software engineers to build the next generation functionality in this area. Individuals interested in this position should have experience building high-performing, reliable systems in a complex, multi-tenancy, and distributed environment in a highly contingent environment. Key job responsibilities Our engineers collaborate across diverse teams, projects, and environments to have a firsthand impact on our global customer base. You'll bring a passion for innovation, data, search, analytics, and distributed systems. You'll also:
- Lead the design and delivery of software systems spanning multiple features and the full software lifecycle — from design through implementation, testing, deployment, and long-term maintenance strategy.
- Own team architecture, providing system-wide design guidance and driving adoption of engineering best practices across the team.
- Solve complex problems with multiple risks and conflicting constraints, defining technology strategy where one does not yet exist.
- Effectively communicate technical designs and decisions in writing, building consensus across teams with differing points of view.
- Balance speed of delivery with long-term extensibility — identifying one-way-door decisions and advocating for the right solution for customers.
- Coach and mentor multiple engineers, contributing to team growth through training, recruiting, and career guidance.
- Ensure operational excellence with the right alarms, telemetry, runbooks, and retrospective processes.
- Proactively resolve root causes of endemic problems, including areas where your team limits the innovation of other teams. A day in the life As you lead the design and delivery of complex software systems, you'll define technology strategy, drive architectural decisions, and ensure operational excellence across your team. You'll also:
- Own delivering complex and raising the bar code and architectural changes, with system-wide impact.
- Lead design discussions, build consensus across teams, and communicate decisions effectively to technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Mentor and coach engineers on your team, raising the bar through code reviews, design guidance, and career development.
- Drive cross-team alignment to resolve systemic issues and unblock innovation across the organization.
- 5+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
- 5+ years of programming with at least one software programming language experience
- 4+ years of leading design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
- Experience as a mentor, tech lead or leading an engineering team Preferred Qualifications
