Description

AWS Serverless Compute is at the heart of the Serverless movement. It is a fast growing service that is becoming the default compute platform for a wide range of applications including executing untrusted and AI generated code in isolated environments with near-instant launch and resume capabilities.

We are looking for a software development manager to lead feature development for Serverless Compute. This role requires ownership, autonomy, and an ability to deliver results. You should be a self-starter with a bias towards independent problem solving. Clear communication and prioritization will be important as you partner with Product Management to plan, and deliver experiences for customers of Serverless Compute Platform. You have a passion for managing complex technology projects and helping the team make strong business judgments. Experience building low-latency compute infrastructure is preferred.

How do you know if you are a good fit for us? You are fascinated by the challenge of building innovative, global-scale software systems. You value the purposefulness and connect to customers in every action, decision and code delivered. You are inspired by difficult problems and by quickly finding solutions that will stand the test of time. You relish the opportunity to take active ownership for building and operating a service that delights customers.

Why do we believe that we are a good fit for you? You’ll be part of a team with smart leaders and engineers who value empathy, inclusion and thought diversity. We set ourselves a high bar on people-first practices and we strive everyday to help each other and our customers to be successful.

About Amazon

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 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 16 Leadership Principles, which remind team members to seek diverse perspectives, learn and be curious, and earn trust.

Work/Life Balance
Our team puts a high value on work-live balance. 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.

Mentorship & Career Growth
Our team is dedicated to supporting new members. We have a broad mix of experience levels and tenures, and we’re building an environment that celebrates knowledge sharing and mentorship. Our senior members enjoy one-on-one mentoring and thorough, but kind, code reviews. We care about your career growth and strive to assign projects based on what will help each team member develop into a better-rounded engineer and enable them to take on more complex tasks in the future.
