Location: Seattle, WA or Denver, CO or Herndon, VA or Arlington, VA or Annapolis Junction, MD Summary: AWS Utility Computing (UC) provides product innovations — from foundational services such as Amazon’s Simple Storage Service (S3) and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), to consistently released new product innovations that continue to set AWS’s services and features apart in the industry. As a member of the UC organization, you’ll support the development and management of Compute, Database, Storage, Internet of Things (Iot), Platform, and Productivity Apps services in AWS, including support for customers who require specialized security solutions for their cloud services.

We are looking for engineers passionate about both development and operations with a strong desire to learn. This is a true DevOps role; you will be both allowed and expected to follow problems all the way to the end, and work on implementing real solutions and not just quick fixes.

• Develop and deploy operational tools to automate processes and reduce operational overhead

• Current, active US Government Security Clearance of TS/SCI with Full Scope Polygraph Preferred Qualifications:
• Experience with distributed systems at scale
• Experience working in an Agile environment using the Scrum methodology
• Understand the principles behind CI/CD Why AWS?
