DESCRIPTION
Join our team of innovative software developers dedicated to evolving our deployment tools and services enabling us to manage software deployments on behalf of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) service teams.

You will program in various languages that primarily include Java, Kotlin, GoLang, Ruby, as well as a variety of internal Amazon tools.
As an experienced engineer in the team, you will be a technology leader responsible for mentoring engineers in the team, guiding our service’s technology strategy, designing and developing high quality software designs and implementing solutions autonomously to address the ambiguous challenges we encounter. We use an agile approach to deliver value to our customers.
Mentoring & Career Growth
Your career growth is a priority for us. Our team is welcoming and supportive towards new team members through mentoring and coaching.

Engineers in our team show a strong sense of ownership, they are customer centric and proud of the service they deliver.
Work/Life Harmony
Most of our team is based in Cape Town. Under normal circumstances, we mostly work from the office, but you will have the flexibility to manage your own time. Occasionally we work with our colleagues across the world meaning we accommodate different timezones. This position involves on-call responsibilities. We continuously prioritise efforts to automate ourselves out of operational responsibilities to ensure the impact is minimal.
We are looking for an enthusiastic, motivated, curious engineer to join us on our journey of fast and safe deployments. Our team has the potential to multiply the value we offer to our customers, but we need you.
If this sounds like the opportunity for you, come build with us!
