Cleared AWS SDE supporting Aurora, DynamoDB, EMR, OpenSearch, RDS and Redshift infrastructure for government customers requiring TS/SCI clearance
This role is in AWS Infrastructure Services (AIS) in Herndon, VA, working directly with Amazon's largest and most demanding customers on its massively-scaled database services (Aurora, DynamoDB, EMR, OpenSearch, RDS, Redshift), and requires the candidate to currently hold an active TS/SCI clearance and be willing to obtain a TS/SCI with polygraph. Basic qualifications call for 3+ years of professional software development and 2+ years of design/architecture experience, placing this at mid-level, with heavy emphasis on Linux/networking depth and deep technical troubleshooting rather than pure feature-building.
