Just Walk Out Stores is where AWS technology meets the real world. We build and operate the commerce software that powers stores running "Just Walk Out" technology — a system that lets customers walk in, pick up what they need, and walk out, with no checkout required. From JWOS to partner-operated formats, our stores run on a complex stack of cameras, gates, and distributed software services — all of which need to work flawlessly, every hour of every day. We are part of the AWS Solutions organization, and our mission is simple: keep stores open, customers happy, and technology invisible. As a Support Engineer III in the Technical Operations Center (TOC), you are a technical leader and force multiplier for the team. You go beyond resolving incidents — you own the patterns behind them, drive the initiatives that eliminate them, and raise the bar for how the team operates. You will lead oncall response for complex, high-severity incidents, own deep dive investigations end-to-end, and partner with Dev teams to drive automation and lasting fixes. On non-oncall shifts, you lead reduction initiatives, mentor peers, and shape the processes that make the team stronger. You will work in a follow-the-sun model, operating India Morning (6AM-2PM IST), Afternoon (2-10 PM IST) and Night shifts (10 PM–6 AM IST) as part of a globally distributed team where your technical judgment and operational ownership directly shape team outcomes, and where your decisions set the standard for the engineers around you. Key job responsibilities - Lead oncall response for JWO store incidents as the primary responder, owning triage, escalation, and resolution for high-severity, complex incidents within SLA windows - Own deep dive investigations end-to-end — identifying systemic failure patterns, driving root cause analyses, and partnering with Dev teams to validate that fixes hold - Manage rotational shift coverage as part of a globally distributed follow-the-sun model, including weekend rotations, ensuring seamless handoffs and shift health documentation - Drive zero-touch resolution and automation initiatives — identifying manual intervention patterns, proposing runbook candidates, and seeing them through to implementation - Partner with Dev and engineering teams during escalations, providing structured reproduction steps, impact assessments, and technical recommendations - Own SOP development and knowledge base quality — identifying gaps, authoring updates, and ensuring the team's operational documentation reflects current best practices - Mentor SE1s and SE2s through oncall shadowing, deep dive reviews, and day-to-day coaching - Lead team-level operational reviews, presenting data-backed findings and driving follow-through on action items A day in the life During your oncall shift, you are the first line of defense for live JWO store incidents. When a store-impacting issue fires, you get paged, triage the alert, and lead resolution in real time — making the calls that matter, with no waiting, no escalation above you. On non-oncall shifts, you lead the work with Dev teams — driving root cause investigations, owning reduction initiatives, and pushing automation improvements from identification through to implementation.
