Description For Database Engineer, AWS Database Migration Services

There was a time when asked "where should I store my data", the answer was always, "a relational database! Of course!" And it was a good answer… at the time. Well, not anymore, not always. Sure, relational databases are still very useful but we also have, non-relational databases, key-value stores, flat file stores, graph databases, and more.

We are the Database Migration Service Database Engineering Team at AWS, passionate about helping customers move data into and around the AWS ecosystem. We are looking for talented database engineers with experience in various data stores and technologies such as Oracle, SQL Server, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redshift, and streaming technologies like Kafka or Kinesis Data Streams.

As a Database Engineer, you will:

  • Work with developers to refine and design migration and replication tools
  • Test tools to improve quality, performance, and scalability
  • Help customers leverage our tools for moving data in the AWS ecosystem
  • Solve complex migration and replication problems
  • Gather feedback to drive improvements in tool quality and functionality
  • Work with AWS Services: DMS, SCT, RDS, Aurora, Redshift, S3, Kinesis, EC2, MSK

We value a forward-looking attitude, problem-solving skills, curiosity, ownership, and a deep respect for customer security. Join us in the Utility Computing (UC) organization at AWS, where you'll support the development and management of various AWS services.

AWS values diverse experiences and work-life harmony. We offer inclusive team culture, mentorship, and career growth opportunities. If you're passionate about databases, replication, and helping enterprises leverage various data stores in AWS, this position is for you!
