We build platforms and tools that ensure the health of AWS hardware by verifying and authenticating every new and rebuilt system across all AWS data centers and manufacturing sites. Our platform enables service owners such as EC2, EBS, S3, and others to deliver healthy servers for their service to the production. Our team leads a large-scale service that sets the bar for Amazon and the industry in platform level services, effectively enabling the hardware at scale by designing and developing the software that manages the verification and testing of every server in AWS. Why it’s high-impact? We set the bar high to ensure that AWS customers get the capacity they need to run their applications on a healthy hardware server within an SLA What’s the challenge? There are many ambiguous and difficult challenges in our fast-moving space. Our platform is mission critical and requires deep system and software expertise.
