Job Description

DESCRIPTION

AWS Utility Computing (UC) provides product innovations — from foundational services such as Amazon’s Simple Storage Service (S3) and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), to consistently released new product innovations that continue to set AWS’s services and features apart in the industry. As a member of the UC organization, you’ll support the development and management of Compute, Database, Storage, Internet of Things (Iot), Platform, and Productivity Apps services in AWS, including support for customers who require specialized security solutions for customers who require specialized security solutions for their cloud services.
EC2 Nitro drives the planet’s largest, fastest growing and most feature-rich compute cloud. Nitro is AWS’ ground-up design for virtualization at global scale built on a fully custom stack of hardware, firmware and applications. Nitro has enabled EC2 to support Intel, AMD and Amazon’s custom silicon - the Graviton processor family - while raising the industry bar for security and performance across our product line.
We integrate hardware, firmware, application software and services to deliver new virtualized and bare-metal compute platforms for companies from startups through the Fortune 500. We are looking for an experienced Software Engineer to drive development for new EC2 compute platforms. In this role, the Engineer will work with a broad and deep group of technical teams that develop hardware, firmware, systems and application software.

The ideal candidate is expected to have solid understanding of computer science fundamentals, and expertise in C,C++ or Rust development in a Linux environment. Experience with Linux package management, version control systems, automated build processes, and software unit testing are required. Specific, in-depth knowledge of the use, design, and development of Linux operating system internals is preferred.

A day in the life
As a Nitro Host Services engineer, your day centers around developing and optimizing the specialized user-land operating system components that powers AWS's Nitro system. You might start by reviewing telemetry data from overnight performance tests, then dive into coding a new series of APIs for an upcoming EC2 instance type. After lunch, you'll debug a thorny C memory allocation issue. Later, you'll collaborate with engineers to optimize Rust code for new security feature. You'll wrap up by finishing a document for tomorrow's design. Throughout the day, you'll balance planned feature development with quick investigations of any critical system issues that arise.

About the team
The Nitro Host Services team develops and maintains critical user-land processes within the Nitro Operating System. Our collaborative team environment emphasizes close partnerships both within the group and across EC2 teams to deliver high-impact solutions.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

- 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
- 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
- Experience programming with at least one software programming language
