From Amazon's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
The Data Management and Research (DMR) team in AWS Networking is looking for a Senior Software Development Engineer to set the technical direction for Mentat, our real-time network analytics engine, and the broader Data Exchange Services that partner teams across Networking depend on. Mentat is built on ClickHouse for petabyte-scale analytical storage and query, Kubernetes (EKS and self-managed clusters) for orchestration at fleet scale, and Grafana as the primary visualization and self-service query surface for our customers.
In this role you will own the architecture of these systems, turn the hardest and most ambiguous multi-team problems into clear multi-quarter plans, and deliver them through other engineers. You will drive the reliability, performance, and cost strategy for ClickHouse clusters and their Kubernetes infrastructure across multiple regions, shape how teams consume data through Grafana, and raise the engineering bar through design, review, and mentorship.
If you want senior IC leverage where your impact comes from architecture, judgment, and growing other engineers, and you want that work to shape how AWS Networking sees its own data, this is that role.
Key job responsibilities
As a Senior SDE on DMR, you set the technical direction for the platform and own the architecture of our most critical systems. You take the hardest, most ambiguous problems spanning multiple services and teams, turn them into clear multi-quarter plans, and deliver them through other engineers. You are a force multiplier: your designs, standards, and judgment raise the quality of everything the team ships, and your influence reaches well beyond DMR into partner and customer teams across Networking.
This is a hands-on senior IC role where your leverage comes from architecture, direction setting, and developing other engineers rather than from individual output alone.
DMR owns and operates the Data Exchange Services for AWS Networking. We run a stream-first, centrally operated data platform where partner teams co-locate their part of the network data working set, enriched and transformed in memory for real-time use, and indexed and compacted in the datalake for analytics.
The base salary range for this position is listed below. Your Amazon package will include sign-on payments and restricted stock units (RSUs). Final compensation will be determined based on factors including experience, qualifications, and location.
Amazon also offers comprehensive benefits including health insurance (medical, dental, vision, prescription, Basic Life & AD&D insurance and option for Supplemental life plans, EAP, Mental Health Support, Medical Advice Line, Flexible Spending Accounts, Adoption and Surrogacy Reimbursement coverage), 401(k) matching, paid time off, and parental leave.
