About the role

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain. You'll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You'll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you'll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

Within AWS, the Infrastructure Security Organization – Hardware Lifecycle Security (InfraSec-HLS) team is responsible for validating the devices and components within them throughout the hardware lifecycle across global AWS datacenters. The AWS InfraSec-HLS team is seeking a Software Development Engineer II to join our Infrastructure Security-HLS Software Development team. In this role, you will be responsible for building, maintaining, and scaling the software solutions that support the security of our devices that form the foundation of our cloud. You will work with Software Development Engineers, Security Engineers, and Software Development Manager, in raising the bar and elevating InfraSec-HLS's software capabilities by developing innovative solutions to complicated problems.

Successful candidates will possess an entrepreneurial spirit and passion for their work. They will be self-motivated and comfortable setting their own direction in an always-changing and highly-complex environment. AWS leads and innovates. We don't just buy off-the-shelf software or follow others. We research and pursue the best approach for the business, whether that's building new solutions or leveraging existing ones. Amazon Web Services, and the Infrastructure Security Organization in particular, operate at massive scale and as a result, demand the highest standards, passion, and discipline for information security and software engineering. A high level of ownership and accountability is a must for this role.
