Outpost brings native AWS services, infrastructure, and operation models to virtually any data center, co-location space, or on-premises facility.

Wavelength brings AWS services to the edge of the 5G network, minimizing the latency to connect to an application from a mobile device. These are exciting, challenging new product that has the potential to re-define the industry.

As a member of the team, you will:

• own system architecture and development for product initiatives and feature development

AWS is the fastest growing division within Amazon. Help us revolutionize the Cloud! Amazon has a fast-paced environment where we “Work Hard, Have Fun, Make History.” On a “typical” day, software engineers might whip up a prototype to prove or disprove an idea, instrument code to report a new metric, talk with customers, code up a feature, or draft a proposal for a radical new idea.
