Machine learning, big data; real-time data streaming. If these areas resonate with you, then join us to work on extremely motivating challenges at Amazon Web Services (AWS). Within AWS Payments we build and run Machine Learning models to optimize business processes and improve the customer experience.

If you are a strong software engineer, self-starter and learner who is passionate about working with massive amounts of data to build state-of-art system on top of AWS native services, then this is the right opportunity for you. You will work with a team of highly skilled engineers and scientists, to build the next generation Machine Learning, Data, and Analytics platform at AWS. As part of your job, you will deal with large amounts of training data, rapid prototyping of new models, performance optimizations, offline and online testing, and building fully automated solutions to push Machine Learning models to production, applying MLOps best-practices.

About you

You are fascinated by the power of large scale systems and using machine learning algorithms to optimize decision making. And you're looking for a career where you'll be able to build, to deliver, and to impress. You look at problems holistically, and thrive on the intricate complexity of designing feedback loops and ecosystems. You want to work on projects where you are implementing solutions to real problems that require creative solutions and deep understanding of the problem space. You will partner with research scientists to challenge yourself and others to constantly come up with better solutions. You'll be given an opportunity to own and drive initiatives through the entire software stack -- from customer facing features, to algorithmic innovation, all the way down to the datasets that the back-end services consume.

As a software development engineer of this team, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the definition, vision, design, roadmap and development of this set of product features from beginning to end. You will:
- Mentor and lead junior developers on the team.
- Help drive business decisions with your technical input.
- Design, implement, test, deploy and maintain innovative software solutions, while optimizing service performance, durability, cost, and security.
- Use software engineering best practices to ensure a high standard of quality for all of the team deliverables.
- Participate in the full development cycle for ETL: design, implementation, validation, documentation, and maintenance.
- Design, implement, and support data warehouse / data lake infrastructure using AWS big data stack, Python, Redshift, Glue/lake formation, EMR/Spark/Scala, Athena etc.
- Write high quality distributed and scalable systems, to deal with large scale data.
- Automate the end-to-end development life-cycle to deploy Machine Learning models from research phase to production.
- Work in an agile, startup-like development environment, where you are always working on the most important stuff.
- Work closely with scientists, data engineers and other stakeholders to create and deploy new features, in order to optimize various business processes.
In this role you will contribute to a critical and highly-visible function within the AWS business. You will be given the opportunity to autonomously deliver the technical direction of new projects and features in our roadmap. You will work with extraordinary talent and have the opportunity to hire and shape the team to best execute on the product. If you’re excited to have a large impact on AWS and the cloud computing industry, you’ll find this role to be engaging, challenging, and full of opportunities to learn and grow.
