Job summary
Interested in building ML-distributed systems to deploy machine learning models at scale? With Amazon SageMaker, Amazon Web Service's (AWS) Machine Learning platform team is building customer-facing services to catalyze data scientists and software engineers in their machine learning endeavors. We have set out to build highly scalable and fault tolerant distributed clustering infrastructure for HPC. Specifically, the real-time inference component enables customers deploy ML models at scale to run high performant, low-latency CPU / Deep Learning workloads and monitor the quality of the models and data in production. ML Ops, CICD and A/B testing are in the mix as well for deploying models safely.

This requirement is with SageMaker Foundational services team. You will design, implement, test, document, and support cross-cutting services to help customers do machine learning at scale. You'll assist in gathering and analyzing business and functional requirements, and translate requirements into technical specifications for robust, scalable, supportable solutions that work well within the overall system architecture. You will serve as a key technical resource in the full development cycle, from conception to delivery and maintenance. You will produce comprehensive, usable software documentation; recommend changes in development, maintenance and system standards.

You will own delivery of entire piece of the system and serve as technical lead on complex projects using best practice engineering standards, and hire/mentor junior development engineers. You will do everything from determining priorities and designing features to re-architecture as necessary, automated testing and mentoring others. The best candidates show true end-to-end ownership.

We're moving fast, and this is a great team to join and make a huge impact on AWS and the world's customers we serve!
