Software Development Engineer - AWS WorkSpaces, AWS WorkSpaces

Description

As part of the AWS Applied AI Solutions organization, we have a vision to provide business applications, leveraging Amazon’s unique experience and expertise, that are used by millions of companies worldwide to manage day-to-day operations. We will accomplish this by accelerating our customers’ businesses through delivery of intuitive and differentiated technology solutions that solve enduring business challenges. We blend vision with curiosity and Amazon’s real-world experience to build opinionated, turnkey solutions.

Where customers prefer to buy over build, we become their trusted partner with solutions that are no-brainers to buy and easy to use.

Amazon Work Spaces is revolutionizing end user computing by providing fully managed Desktop-as-a-Service (DaaS) solutions from the AWS Cloud. Organizations can easily provision cloud-based desktops that allow their users to access documents, applications and the resources they need with the device of their choice, including laptops, iPad, Kindle Fire, Android tablets, and zero clients. With a few clicks in the AWS Management Console, customers can provision a high-quality cloud desktop experience for any number of users at a cost that is highly competitive with traditional desktops while costing less than most traditional virtual desktop solutions.

If you like to work in massively scalable distributed systems, to solve challenging problems, and to create great products, then join our team to help build Amazon's Desktop-As-A-Service offering! We aim to bring a desktop experience to modern form factors (mobile, desktop) with a native experience for end-users, and a simple and cost-effective way to provision and manage these desktops for IT administrators, leveraging world’s largest public cloud!

The systems underlying the offering are complex and there are huge opportunities to work at all levels from a set of robust platform services, to system-level pieces, and everything in between.

As a developer on our team, you’ll own code end-to-end from design to development, and work closely with senior technical leaders within the team and across AWS. You’ll have a sound understanding of computer science fundamentals and practical industry experience, working across the technology stack.

• You are sensitive to customer needs and interested in having a firsthand impact on Amazon’s global customer base
• You truly care about the business results of what you build, not just the elegance of the technology
• You like to solve interesting technology problems
• You enjoy collaborating in a diverse team environment
• You are a passionate learner and motivated to take on new challenges.
• You want to have fun; surround yourself with a highly talented pool of engineers that like to solve complex problems, but also enjoy work life balance.

A successful candidate in this role will engineer new solutions or enhance existing solutions that enable customers to have a great experience when utilizing our virtual desktop offerings. This may require significant innovation to solve for problems where no solution currently exists in the industry.
