At Amazon Web Services (AWS), we are inventing the future of cloud computing with a team of builders who try new things and dream big dreams. Our web services provide a platform for IT infrastructure in the cloud used by hundreds of thousands of developers, governments, and businesses worldwide. It is still Day 1 for us, and we are looking for curious people to be part of our diverse teams of thinkers, testers, and doers.

Our Software Development Engineering team seeks developers passionate about cloud computing, someone fascinated with solving web-scale problems in distributed systems. We look for builders who can turn ideas into real-world products, designers capable of producing real-time systems, innovators unafraid to take risks, and customer advocates that put customer experience first, always. We need someone to own and deliver software from beginning to end, from design and implementation to launch and support.

You will be responsible for developing the next generation of a learning experience platform. You will implement a highly technical game-based learning solution with extensive use of hands-on labs, virtual environments, and interactive simulations to get customers to develop practical skills using AWS services.

Here at AWS, we embrace our differences. We are committed to furthering our culture of inclusion. We have twelve employee-led affinity groups, reaching 40,000 employees in over 190 chapters globally. We have innovative benefit offerings, and host annual and ongoing learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences.

We offer flexibility in working hours and encourage you to find your own balance between your work and personal lives.
