Job details

Software Development Engineer, Amazon Identity

DESCRIPTION

Identity Services are the guardians of Amazon’s most sacred asset - customer trust! The stakes for us at Amazon have never been greater as Amazon expand more into customers’ daily lives. We enable Amazon businesses to scale by providing secure authentication and authorization solutions in the most possible friction-less manner. We are moving towards the vision where our clients no longer have to choose between sophisticated security and user convenience. Our guiding principle for adaptive authentication is simple; if we suspect a risk in our multiple risk-layer checks, which run quietly in the background, we will deploy the most secure and appropriate available solution, and if we do not, we will let the customer use Amazon unimpeded.

We are looking for a software engineer to join our Authorization team that is in charge of user and session lifecycle management. We are looking for engineers who are passionate about creating new products, features, and services from scratch while managing ambiguity and the pace of a company where development cycles are measured in weeks, not years. If this sounds interesting to you, apply and come chart your own path at Amazon.

Key job responsibilities
  • Collaborate with experienced cross-disciplinary Amazonians to conceive, design, and bring innovative products and services to market.
  • Design and build innovative technologies in a large distributed computing environment and help lead fundamental changes in the industry.
  • Create solutions to run predictions on distributed systems with exposure to innovative technologies at incredible scale and speed.
  • Build distributed storage, index, and query systems that are scalable, fault-tolerant, low cost, and easy to manage/use.
  • Design and code the right solutions starting with broadly defined problems.
  • Work in an agile environment to deliver high-quality software

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

  • 3+ years of non-internship professional software development experience
  • 2+ years of non-internship design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience
  • Experience programming with at least one software programming language
  • Knowledge of professional software engineering & best practices for full software development life cycle, including coding standards, software architectures, code reviews, source control management, continuous deployments, testing, and operational excellence

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

  • 3+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience
  • Bachelor's degree in computer science or equivalent
