Overview
Description
The Team
AWS Resilience owns service that prevent and respond 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.
AWS Incident Tooling is at the heart of the high availability of Amazon Web Services.
We make customer impacting events shorter and less frequent by detecting early large-scale events and providing the tooling to enable fast mitigation.
Our automated tooling quickly identifies the cause of an issue and helps mitigate its impact.
Our engineer time is spent on projects to improve the tooling and automation.
We also provide our solutions for other AWS groups to manage their own events.
It\'s an exciting time to join our team as we are growing and expanding our offerings.
The Role
As a Software Development Manager on the team, you will manage automated tooling roadmaps and delivery for the detection and resolution of issues within AWS infrastructure.
You will work closely with the team managing the incident response and with leadership to gather new requirements.
Based on learning from past incidents you will drive further improvements into our automation, tooling, and processes so that the next event is shorter or avoided entirely.
You will coordinate across project teams to expand use of our tooling to additional areas across Amazon.
If you\'re looking for a team with great growth potential and an opportunity to make a huge impact, this is the team to join.
