    Description

    Do you want to engineer the systems that help teams proactively detect problems across large-scale infrastructure? Our team builds the telemetry used across Amazon"s operations to catch and diagnose availability issues before they affect the people relying on that infrastructure. We develop the software and services that generate, collect, and analyze network and infrastructure telemetry at scale.

    In this role, you"ll design and build the services and agents that make telemetry data available and impactful. The role includes writing and maintaining agents that run on a range of compute platforms, including network devices, Linux-based clients, and robotics platforms. You"ll also build the backend services that analyze and distribute metrics and insights and also control configurations, storage, and reporting.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
