Software Development Engineer, AWS Insight and Optimization (Level 5)
Are you passionate about diving deep into the complex interplay of services? Do you think big to accelerate product development to provide cost and usage data for AWS customers? Are you challenged to develop scalable and performant services that help customers view and manage costs for AWS resources?

Our team aims to be the world's authoritative provider of AWS computing insight. Customers can understand, control, and optimize usage of AWS products. We sit at the nexus of all AWS services and interact directly with end-customers. We build relationships with teams across AWS to ensure a secure and reliable customer experience. We take inputs from these services and merge them with millions of events per second to produce actionable insights.

Providing a scalable platform to support AWS' expanding business is complex architecturally. Accurate cost and usage information is critical. Enterprise customers make major decisions based on the timeliness, accuracy, and detail of data our products provide.
