AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.
You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.
The Internet Edge Services (IES) organization at Amazon Web Services (AWS) is at the forefront of optimizing global internet connectivity for our customers through innovative software solutions. We are on a bold mission to reimagine how the internet's edge operates at planetary scale — building the Border Network of the future: software-defined, running on commodity hardware, and programmable at every layer. This kind of platform unlocks capabilities that simply weren't possible before.
We're seeking a talented Software Development Manager to join our dynamic team. In this role, you'll be lead the team responsible for building, enhancing, and operating software defined controllers — the intelligent control plane that will power Amazon's software-defined network at the internet edge.
