DESCRIPTION
Job summary
In July of 2021, AWS launched OpenSearch, an Apache 2.0 licensed fork of Elasticsearch 7.10.2. Since then we've launched 3 minor versions, but we're just getting started. If you look at our roadmap, we have a lot more planned.
In September in 2021, OpenSearch took steps to expand the number of clients that support OpenSearch. But this was just the start of the journey. This role will work directly with our community to make sure we're making it easy and fun to access OpenSearch in the language of your choice.
So come join us -- It's an opportunity to build great software with some of the best engineers on the planet and then give it away for free.
Who are you? Youre an engineer who finds deep satisfaction in not just coding but solving customer problems. You find equal joy in learning something and sharing new information with colleagues. When a pager goes off in a room full of developers, youre the one everyone turns to because of your deep knowledge of the systems you work on. The software you build is both functional and beautiful.
Who are we? We're the team that helps build the Open Source product "OpenSearch" at AWS. This role is to directly manage the Amazon engineers working on the project, as well as engage with the community of contributors.
Inclusive Team Culture
Here at AWS, we embrace our differences. We are committed to furthering our culture of inclusion. We have ten employee-led affinity groups, reaching 40,000 employees in over 190 chapters globally. We have innovative benefit offerings, and host annual and ongoing learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences. Amazons culture of inclusion is reinforced within our 14 Leadership Principles, which remind team members to seek diverse perspectives, learn and be curious, and earn trust.
Work/Life Balance
Our team puts a high value on work-life balance. It isnt about how many hours you spend at home or at work; its about the flow you establish that brings energy to both parts of your life. We believe striking the right balance between your personal and professional life is critical to life-long happiness and fulfillment. We offer flexibility in working hours and encourage you to find your own balance between your work and personal lives.
Mentorship & Career Growth
Our team is dedicated to supporting new members. We have a broad mix of experience levels and tenures, and were building an environment that celebrates knowledge sharing and mentorship. Our senior members enjoy one-on-one mentoring and thorough, but kind, code reviews. We care about your career growth and strive to assign projects based on what will help each team member develop into a better-rounded engineer and enable them to take on more complex tasks in the future.
