Description

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is one of Amazon’s fastest growing businesses. At AWS, we are passionate about thinking big, innovating on behalf of our customers, and tackling problems at scale. Millions of customers, from independent developers to large enterprises, interact with AWS by using the AWS Management Console. The Management Console is their introduction to AWS, and for many, their primary interface to accomplish a wide variety of tasks. It is our job to maintain and improve this experience, constantly innovating with rapid design and experimentation, leveraging well-established mechanisms for gathering and understanding user behavior and feedback.

WS Console Platform Team is Hiring a Passionate Front End Engineer

Are you a talented and driven Front End Engineer looking to make a big impact? The AWS Console Platform team is seeking an exceptional individual to help us build the services and products that power the consoles for over 260+ AWS services.

In this role, you will be responsible for developing cutting-edge products that enable AWS teams to easily create and customize their own consoles. You'll work closely with product managers, designers, and backend engineers to deliver intuitive and efficient console experiences for our customers.

AWS has the most services and more features within those services, than any other cloud provider–from infrastructure technologies like compute, storage, and databases–to emerging technologies, such as machine learning and artificial intelligence, data lakes and analytics, and Internet of Things. Whether its Identity features such as access management and sign on, cryptography, console, builder & developer tools, and even projects like automating all of our contractual billing systems, AWS Platform is always innovating with the customer in mind. The AWS Platform team sustains over 750 million transactions per second.

We have a formal mentor search application that lets you find a mentor that works best for you based on location, job family, job level etc. In addition to formal mentors, we work and train together so that we are always learning from one another, and we celebrate and support the career progression of our team members.

Our team also puts a high value on work-life balance. Striking a healthy balance between your personal and professional life is crucial to your happiness and success here, which is why we aren’t focused on how many hours you spend at work or online. Instead, we’re happy to offer a flexible schedule so you can have a more productive and well-balanced life—both in and outside of work.

Here at AWS, we embrace our differences. We are committed to furthering our culture of inclusion. We have ten employee-led affinity groups, reaching 40,000 employees in over 190 chapters globally. We have innovative benefit offerings, and we host annual and ongoing learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences. Amazon’s culture of inclusion is reinforced within our 14 Leadership Principles, which remind team members to seek diverse perspectives, learn and be curious, and earn trust.

This team is part of AWS Utility Computing (UC):
