Work in Washington Veterans Jobs

Description

AWS is the industry leader in Cloud Computing. We enable our customers to dynamically scale their computing capacity as needed. They sky is the limit! Our team is focused on the underlying challenge to this promise – enabling AWS to deliver increased capacity, across a rapidly expanding worldwide footprint of Regions and Availability Zones, while driving down operational costs. We implement tooling to automate the build of the EC2 into new geographies. You will have the opportunity to drive programs across a broad set of EC2 services ensuring we can build one of Earth's largest distributed systems at scale.

We create the tools and mechanisms needed to deploy new EC2 capacity in a fully automated fashion with zero human touch while driving down the footprint needed to run EC2. This work requires innovative solutions for managing complex large scale deployments including configuration, service migration, dependency detection and management and more.

As a TPM (Technical Program Manager) on the EC2 team you will contribute to a wide range of projects in a highly collaborative and fast-paced environment. You will become part of an industry-leading engineering team solving challenging problems at massive scale. Contact us if you are keen to become part of the global cloud computing revolution. We are busy expanding our team and have multiple positions available.

Work/Life Balance

Our team puts a high value on work-life 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.

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.
