We launched Amazon QuickSight, a lighting fast cloud-powered business analytics service that makes it easy for everyone find and share business insights from their data. As more data is being generated and moved to the cloud, Amazon QuickSight is positioned to change how business users interact with data. Regardless of whether the data is in Files (desktop or S3), SQL (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, MariaDB), AWS data stores (Athena, RDS, RedShift, Aurora), or SaaS business applications (Salesforce), QuickSight is built to simplify human data interaction and enable our customers to focus running their businesses using those data insights, and not worry about operating any data infrastructure.

The specific role is to build the analytical service QuickSight SPICE. QuickSight SPICE answers the questions customers ask about their data through its high performance analytical engine. As a multi-tenant serverless service, SPICE enables organizations to scale to hundreds of thousands of users without the needs to manage and operate any infrastructure.
