  • They're the dedicated infrastructure layers that facilitate seamless communication between services and microservices Are you familiar with Service Meshes, Container Networking, and Ingress Traffic Management?
  • They're the dedicated infrastructure layers that facilitate seamless communication between services and microservices, making it easy to connect, monitor, secure, and control services at scale.
  • Here's your opportunity to be part of the AWS Container Networking offerings that power millions of customer workloads: **ECS Service Connect**, **ECS Service Gateway**, and **AWS Cloud Map**.
  • Our networking stack is built on three foundational pillars: - **Envoy Proxy & xDS Control Plane (Service Connect)**, At the core of our service mesh lies Envoy, a versatile, open-source proxy deployed as a sidecar to intercept and manage east-west traffic.
  • Our team builds the Envoy Management Server (xDS) control plane that configures thousands of Envoy proxies in real-time, enabling zero-code load balancing, retries, circuit-breaking, observability, and traffic routing across microservices.
  • - **Elastic Load Balancing Integration (Service Gateway)**, For north-south ingress traffic, we orchestrate AWS Elastic Load Balancers (ALB & NLB) on behalf of customers.
  • Service Gateway automates the provisioning and lifecycle management of load balancers, listener rules, target groups, TLS certificates, and security groups, abstracting away complex networking infrastructure so customers can expose their ECS services to the internet with a single API call.
  • - **AWS Cloud Map (Service Discovery)**, The foundational registry that powers service discovery across the stack.
  • Cloud Map provides DNS-based and API-based service registration and resolution, enabling ECS services to find and communicate with each other without hard-coded endpoints.

Requirements

  • Practical experience with AWS, Scala.
  • Relevant academic or project background for a Software Development Engineer II, AWS ECS role.
  • Strong written and verbal communication in English.
  • Comfortable working on-site in Seattle, Washington, USA.
