Amazon Engineer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

We are open to hiring candidates to work out of one of the following locations:
Seattle, WA, USA
When was the last time you heard of a cyber-attack that took down a host of companies due to poor Authentication controls. Likely a few times in the last few months. At Amazon Web Services (AWS), our team is building out a renewed set of Foundational Access Management capabilities for all of Amazon's digital and physical resources.

We are a fun, collaborative team, and we focus on empowering everyone on the team to achieve their next goal.
We are responsible for the protection of customer and corporate data, while being connected to all parts of Amazon's business and its massive worldwide service-oriented architecture. Whether you're passionate about building highly scalable and reliable systems in the cloud or a software developer who likes to solve interesting and complex business problems, AWS Security is the place for you.
We are looking for a Software Development Engineer to design and build a large scale next generation Authentication Management System. There is ample opportunity to innovate and deliver high impact outcomes

You will collaborate with the leadership team to drive key engineering and business decisions that will influence the Amazon developer experience. You will contribute to all parts of the software development and deployment lifecycle across the entire Amazon development community, including design, implementation, documentation, deployment, and operations across multiple products.
Successful candidates for this position will have strong software engineering fundamentals such as object-oriented design, algorithms, data structures, and a good grasp of advanced systems concepts and design. They must possess strong verbal and written communication skills, be self-driven and deliver high results

They need to really enjoy working closely with their peers within a group of very talented engineers and builders.
This position involves on-call responsibilities, typically for one week every two months. We don't like getting paged in the middle of the night or on the weekend, so we work to ensure that our systems are fault-tolerant. When we do get paged, we work together to resolve the root cause so that we don't get paged for the same issue twice.
