DESCRIPTION

Do you want to help design and build a service that is used by millions of customers every day? Are you passionate about architecting highly available and large-scale services? If the answer is yes, the HyperPlane team wants to talk with you. HyperPlane is an AWS core service that offers customers incredibly scalable and robust load balancing technology.

Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:
· Design and develop APIs, new features or enhancements to the service portfolio
· Ensure 100% application uptime and minimize service disruptions
· Push code using automation and other deployment tools

About the team

Why should you join the Amazon HyperPlane team?
· We ship software frequently, get fast feedback from real customers around the globe, and see the results of our work come to fruition

For example, how do you ensure customers can scale their application quickly to handle traffic spikes and then back down in a matter of minutes? How do you design a load balancing solution that allows customers to quickly and easily achieve the highest levels of fault tolerance using Amazon EC2?
· We are now designing and building the next generation systems capable of handling massive amounts of data per day, and growing from there. This is a unique opportunity to innovate and build some of the world’s most resilient large-scale systems from the ground up
· We innovate frequently, and hold ourselves to high standards of service and availability

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

Preferred qualifications:

· Experience building complex software systems that have been successfully delivered to customers
· Prefer 5-8 years experience
· Experience building highly-available distributed systems
· Knowledge of software engineering best practices for the full development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations
· Ability to take a project from scoping requirements through actual launch
· Good written and oral communication skills, be a fast learner and have the ability to adapt quickly to a fast-paced development environment

If this sounds interesting and you are up to the challenge, we’d love to hear from you. Amazon Web Services is changing the world, and this is a great opportunity to be a part of this exciting business.
