Software developer engineer, Capacity Management Technology

DESCRIPTION

AWS’ is one of the world’s largest and most highly-available networks, that continuously grows year over year, increasing in complexity and criticality. Scaling the network to meet user’s demand is a unique challenge: Network Capacity Services (NCS) builds the infrastructure to manage the demand forecast and the planning of the future state of the network. We own the software system that predicts future needs, elaborates where new network infrastructure has to be deployed, and builds the plan according to physical constraints.

We are looking for Software Development Engineers to build the software that creates the plans to scale one of the world’s largest and most complex networks, and bring them to completion without human intervention. Millions of customers rely on Amazon’s network for their success and we guarantee that the business growth is never constrained. Our success, as well our customers’ success, depends on the ability of NCS’ engineers to continuously innovate.
