Software Development Engineer, Compute Services
AWS — The world's largest cloud platform
About the role
Serverless Compute (https://aws.amazon.com/serverless/?nc2=type_a) is changing the way we think about computing in the cloud. Serverless computing offers customers an exciting new way to create applications, turn business logic and application code into scalable, fault-tolerant production systems without requiring them to be experts in distributed systems, deployment technologies, and infrastructure management. AWS offers technologies for running code, managing data, and integrating applications, all without managing servers. In this role you will work with team to build the new generic platform by using latest AWS technologies. You will solve interesting technical challenges with creative ideas in the domain combined by event driven application and Serverless technologies. You will build features for the distributed and large-scale system which will handle billions or trillions transactions. You have opportunities to re-shape the experience of Serverless development.
