Key job responsibilities A Software Development Engineer on the team is expected to operate autonomously, deliver projects that have scope at the team level and are starting to interact with other teams. While they are capable of independently designing, developing, and testing software components, they are expected to seek input from more senior engineers through regular reviews. They seek guidance from their manager, Sr. Engineers, or Principal Engineers when facing difficult trade-off decisions. They mentor new team members on how the team's services are constructed and operate. They help guide and influence the team by providing feedback during code reviews and operations reviews and they influence their manager by contributing during backlog reviews and planning meetings. They solve difficult technical problems that require understanding the team's software and weigh trade-offs to deliver solutions that are logical, testable and maintainable. A day in the life A typical day for this role will include driving designs for components and services that deliver new features and capabilities, reviewing code of other members on the team, writing complex code, performing root cause analysis on operational events, providing project updates to leadership and other team members and developing estimates for upcoming deliverables. This position involves on-call responsibilities, typically for one week every two months. We don't like getting paged in the middle of the night or on the weekend, so we work to ensure that our systems are fault tolerant. When we do get paged, we work together to resolve the root cause so that we don't get paged for the same issue twice. About the team We build and maintain mission-critical, high-scale networking systems powering AWS Virtual Private Cloud for the EC2 Gateway Networking team. Our team combines hard work with fun weekly happy hours, solving problems together to delight customers. Our team actively supports new members through knowledge-sharing and mentorship. We have diverse experience levels, and senior engineers provide one-on-one mentoring and thorough, kind code reviews. We prioritize your career growth by assigning projects that develop your engineering expertise, empowering you to tackle increasingly complex tasks.
