About The Position

AWS EC2 owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS server
instances. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We
support all AWS compute, storage, accelerator servers and 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 —
and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.

You’ll join a diverse team of hardware engineers, software engineers, system
engineers, technical program 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.

AWS Hardware Engineering is looking for a customer-obsessed, team-driven
technology leader to take our engineering of server hardware and software to the
next level. As a Software Development Engineer on the PCIe and Signal Integrity

including retimer and switch firmware and telemetry. You will work with an
interdisciplinary team of engineers to design, develop, validate, launch,
monitor and troubleshoot high throughput interfaces at scale. You will design
and build software to track fleet performance, validate your designs and to
support debugging. At AWS we are changing the industry and want individuals who
are ready for a challenge to reach beyond what is possible today.
