Amazon Web Services' Cloud Storage, AWS S3, is one of the largest distributed storage systems in the world. Managing trillions of objects in storage, retrieving them in sub-x ms, building software that deploys to tens of thousands of hosts, building applications serving billions of transactions per second, achieving % ("you didn’t read that wrong, that’s 11 nines!") durability. These are just a few of the numbers that give you a sense of the scale of the exciting problems you will find every day working in Simple Storage Service (S3). Amazon S3 powers businesses across the globe that make the lives of consumers better daily. As a Software Development Engineer in S3, you get to deliver these capabilities and delight our customers through teams of talented engineers and leaders.

With trillions of objects to manage, keeping track of what is stored on S3 is difficult. S3 Index develops the software responsible for durability and availability of key-value metadata. We tackle some of the hardest computer science problems. We build systems that can handle wildly varying client application access patterns and unprecedented loads by our customers. S3 Index responsively scales customer workloads, without the need for customers to provision capacity, is what puts the "Simple" in Straightforward Storage Service (S3).





S3 Index is looking for a passionate software engineer to build the next generation of S3 Index systems.

In AWS, if you build it, you own it. S3 is a highly available 7x24 worldwide service requiring dedicated support from our engineering teams.

This means we hold a high bar for test automation, verification processes, design and code reviews to ensure that our systems meet the exacting standards our customers demand. We maintain a regular on‑call rotation across our teams with engineers and managers all taking part to resolve issues that arise. We work hard to minimize getting paged in the middle of the night as we recognize that a well‑rested employee is a productive employee.

Upon joining S3, every employee is paired with a peer buddy who will help you to quickly come up to speed in understanding the technology we’re building, the tools we use and the business problems we’re trying to solve. We hire exceptional people and we recognize the importance of coaching others.
