Job Description:
AWS Resilience owns service to prevent and response to availability and security issues for all AWS Services. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We work on the most challenging problems, with constant new services and possible failure modes to prevent — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.
You’ll join a diverse team of software, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security and availability. You’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.
AWS Incident Response is at the heart of the high availability of Amazon Web Services. We make customer impacting events shorter and less frequent by driving large scale event and incident response. Our automated tooling quickly identifies the cause of an issue and helps mitigate its impact, and much of our engineer time is spent on projects to improve the tooling and automation. We also provide manual incident management for AWS and other Amazon groups, directing the resolution of an issue with service teams, and diving deep into those events to drive improvements to the tooling. It's an exciting time to join our team as we are growing and expanding our offerings.
Key job responsibilities
You will own the organisation strategy relative to the usage of ML, GenAI and propose the best technology to advance our ability to better detect, faster root cause, and correlate to prior incidents to shorten customer facing AWS incidents. Your work will enable us to identify gaps in our current strategy, learnings from past incidents. You will contribute to shortening incident response through deep analysis and introduction of new technology.
About the team
AWS Infrastructure Services (AIS) owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.
You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.
