Software Development Engineer II, SKG Team

Key job responsibilities

• Build the services in the Data Center Alarming Platform that turn an alarm firehose into actionable signal: suppression, correlation, and deduplication logic running across hundreds of data centers.
• Build integrations with Amazon Bedrock for natural-language alarm summarization, pattern detection, and triage assistance.
• Contribute to the Automated Triage and Ticketing Engine: services that classify, prioritize, and route alarms to the appropriate data center engineering operations teams with contextual information for faster resolution.
• Define infrastructure as code using AWS CDK. Write the constructs, wire up the pipelines, and own the operational health of what you deploy.
• Participate in design reviews — both authoring designs for your own work and providing meaningful feedback on others'. Bring your own proposals and trade-off analysis.
• Mentor SDE1s on the team through code review, pairing, and helping them grow into autonomous contributors. Train new teammates on how our systems work and how they fit into the bigger picture.

About the team

SKG sits within the DC BRIDGE organization, which builds software platforms supporting Amazon's data center engineering operations worldwide. Our systems directly impact the reliability and efficiency of the physical infrastructure that powers AWS and Amazon's global services. The team is led by Eleanor Scott and operates with high ownership and autonomy over our services end-to-end. The Seattle team is a small group of SDEs. As an SDE2 you'll be a core autonomous contributor: owning features, raising the bar in reviews, and helping more junior engineers grow.
