  • 1 years of experience in software development

Job summary
Come build the next generation of Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)! Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) Networking team gives customers ability to build secure, scalable, resilient and highly available VPCs. Today, we maintain high performance software that streamlines the management of millions of VPC configurations. We are re-engineering our virtual networking distribution plane as part of Amazon’s initiative to get EC2 performance to be as close as possible to that of bare metal.

We are looking for software development engineers that are passionate about creating application software that underpin the fabric of the EC2 cloud. On any given day, we use Python, Java, C, Lambda, DynamoDB, and S3, as well as a host of Amazon-internal tools. We don’t expect you to be an expert in, or necessarily even be familiar with, all of the technologies listed above, but we do expect you to be excited to learn about them!

In this role you’ll build software that scales to new heights. With cloud adoption accelerating, you will be challenged with fun, complex problems to think about scale and grow our services to meet ever increasing demands. You’ll apply your creative and critical problem-solving skills to develop and run multi-tenant at massive scale services. Above all, you will care deeply about the customer and delight in creating simple and elegant solutions that solve our customers’ biggest challenges.

About Us
Inclusive Team Culture
Here at AWS, we embrace our differences. We are committed to furthering our culture of inclusion. We have ten employee-led affinity groups, reaching 40,000 employees in over 190 chapters globally. We have innovative benefit offerings, and we host annual and ongoing learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences. Amazon’s culture of inclusion is reinforced within our 14 Leadership Principles, which remind team members to seek diverse perspectives, learn and be curious, and earn trust.

Mentorship & Career Growth
Our team is dedicated to supporting new team members. Our team has a broad mix of experience levels and Amazon tenures, and we’re building an environment that celebrates knowledge sharing and mentorship. Our senior engineers truly enjoy mentoring more junior engineers and engineers from non-traditional backgrounds through one-on-one mentoring and thorough, but kind, code reviews.
We care about your career growth. You will work with your manager on defining your unique career growth plan that will act as a north star when choosing which projects you will work on.

Work/Life Harmony
Our team puts a high value on work-live harmony. It isn’t about how many hours you spend at home or at work; it’s about the flow you establish that brings energy to both parts of your life. We believe striking the right balance between your personal and professional life is critical to life-long happiness and fulfillment. We offer flexibility in working hours and encourage you to find your own balance between your work and personal lives.

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.


  • Effective verbal and written communication skills
  • Proficiency in design and analysis of algorithms and data structures
  • Networking experience in UDP and TCP/IP
  • Experience operating critical, 24x7 production systems
