Come help us build automation that manages millions of hosts for Amazon.

To achieve this requires us to innovate and keep abreast with the latest cutting-edge technologies. We are looking for a proven leader to help lead teams of exceptional software engineers to tackle some of the hardest problems at global scale. We want someone who has a proven record of delivering highly operable and maintainable software on time, has relentlessly high standards for themselves and everyone around them and who will drive engineering best practices throughout the team while constantly looking for ways to make the systems we own better. The ideal candidate will look like this… - Be great fun to work with. Our company credo is “Work hard. Have fun. Make history”. The right candidate will love what they do and instinctively know how to make work fun. - Enjoys being a great people manager. i.e., building, motivating and mentoring a world-class software engineering team is the most important part of this role. You should have a proven track record in recruiting and retaining top talent and excel in day-to-day people and performance management tasks. - Brings a strong set of project & product management experience. - The successful candidate will create a team vision and product roadmap and set SMART goals for the team and individuals alike. - You will be intensely customer focused: you understand your customers’ challenges and are constantly looking for ways to solve them. - You have great communication skills, and enjoy working in a fast-paced, collaborative team environment.
