Key job responsibilities
About the team
Work/Life Balance
Our team puts a high value on work-life balance. Our team is mostly located in Austin/Houston, TX. Most engineers work in an hybrid work environment where they work on site a couple of days a week and the rest from home. Our work day generally ranges from 10am to 6pm CDT, but is flexible depending on the team member. Some of us may start our day earlier or stay later, depending on the day.
On-Call Responsibility
This position involves on-call responsibilities, typically for one week a month, but as the team grows this will lessen. We don’t like getting paged in the middle of the night or on the weekend, so we work to ensure that our systems are fault tolerant. When we do get paged, we work together to resolve the root cause so that we don’t get paged for the same issue twice.
Mentorship & Career Growth
Our team is dedicated to supporting new team members. We have a broad mix of experience levels and Amazon tenures, and we’re building an environment that celebrates knowledge sharing and mentorship. Everyone on the team plays a role in raising the bar on how we develop complex, scalable, reliable code for our team. Managers have frequent 1:1s with their engineers, and career conversations where we seek to understand people’s career motivations and provide honest, respectful feedback to facilitate them achieving their goals.
Inclusive Team Culture
Here at AWS, we embrace our differences. We are committed to furthering our culture of inclusion. We have ten employee-led affinity groups, reaching 40,000 employees in over 190 chapters globally. We have innovative benefit offerings, and we host annual and ongoing learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences. Amazon’s culture of inclusion is reinforced within our 14 Leadership Principles, which remind team members to seek diverse perspectives, learn and be curious, and earn trust
Come join us as we continue to build a cloud-scale service designed to delight customers!
