The team values work-life balance and maintains an inclusive culture that embraces differences. You'll be part of a supportive environment with mentorship opportunities, thorough code reviews, and a focus on knowledge sharing. The position includes on-call responsibilities (one week every two months) with an emphasis on building fault-tolerant systems.

This is an excellent opportunity for experienced engineers passionate about distributed systems, networking, and cloud infrastructure who want to make a significant impact at scale. The role offers competitive compensation, including equity, sign-on payments, and comprehensive benefits, reflecting Amazon's commitment to attracting and retaining top talent.
