$150,700 to $251,700 CAD per year Responsibilities

The work centres on

control-plane scaling

and on setting a high bar for how the team builds and runs software. Duties cover design leadership, cross-team decisions, operational standards and mentoring. Own the architecture and implementation

of control-plane-scaling systems that keep VPC Lattice fast, consistent and reliable as the fleet grows by orders of magnitude. Lead the design

of ambiguous, large-scale problems from a loosely defined goal to a sequence of shippable milestones, with the tradeoffs documented. Drive technical decisions

across team and service boundaries, building alignment with partner teams in EC2 Networking, PrivateLink and the broader UC organization. Set and enforce the bar for operational excellence : observability, failure isolation, safe deployment, and evolving the data path without disrupting live customer traffic. Remove whole classes of operational and scaling risk

instead of fixing one-off defects, and leave the team's software measurably better and easier to maintain. Mentor and grow engineers

on the team by raising the quality of designs and reviews and developing their judgment on distributed-systems tradeoffs. Invent on customers' behalf , turning high-demand internal and external requirements into durable, well-engineered capabilities.

or equivalent (preferred). Depth in

distributed-systems fundamentals

such as consistency, throughput, failure modes and operational safety, together with the ability to influence multi-year architecture. 5+ years of non-internship skilled software development experience; 5+ years of programming with at least one software programming language; 5+ years of leading design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems; experience as a mentor, tech lead or leading an engineering team.
