CloudFront's Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) team is looking for experienced System Development Engineers to build out automation of critical service reliability and efficiency functions that ensures massively scaled, fault-tolerant and globally distributed service for our end users.

This is not a typical checkbox monitoring role but an engineering role that specializes in not just understanding how a system is supposed to work but why it doesn't work as per its service level objectives. Amazon SRE engineers utilizes best practices and tools like 5-why, fishbone, white box and black box monitoring, system resiliency, load balancing/sharing/shedding best practices, failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), incident management, risk and dependency mapping and predictive service provisioning and capacity planning.
