Full Job Description
We're seeking a Systems Development Engineer to join the Unified Workcell Compute team. This is a hands-on, high-impact role where you'll design and build systems that manage Amazon's edge device fleet — over a million devices across thousands of locations worldwide. You'll work at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, device management, robotics systems, and operational excellence, solving complex technical problems that enable Amazon's robotics and fulfillment operations to scale globally. As a SysDE II, you'll be a strong individual contributor who delivers high-quality technical solutions, contributes to architectural discussions, and builds reliable systems that enable robotics and automation teams to deploy and manage their edge compute solutions with the same ease as deploying to AWS. You'll work within established technical strategies while identifying opportunities for improvement, translating well-scoped business problems into concrete technical solutions, and balancing short-term delivery with long-term system health. This role requires solid technical depth across multiple domains — Linux systems, AWS services, IoT platforms, robotics compute infrastructure, and distributed systems — combined with the ability to partner effectively with engineers across the team and organization. Key job responsibilities - Build and maintain resilient, scalable distributed systems that operate at Amazon scale, contributing to the management of robotics device fleets across thousands of sites with 99.99%+ availability requirements. - Contribute to the technical strategy for your team's systems within the UWC architecture, participating in decisions around hyperscale deployments, robotics compute patterns, fleet management, and edge device automation. - Participate in architectural reviews and design discussions across UWC and robotics customer teams, contributing technical input on device lifecycle management, software distribution, multi-compute workcell assistance,
