Do you have a builder’s mentality where “show me” means more than “tell me”? Are you passionate about picking up emerging technologies in the Internet of Things? Are you adept at working with customers to experiment with innovative ideas?
We are a team of cross-functional developers. We work across the full stack, from IoT and machine learning device software on the edge, to the backend services in the AWS cloud. We collaborate with partners and customers to create early iterations of solutions using AWS services, often exploring new technical grounds. The team is looking for motivated engineers who possess a unique balance of technical depth, curiosity to learn, and strong interpersonal and presentation skills.
Key job responsibilities
Here are some qualities we are looking for:
§ You have a passion for exploring art of the possible, learning new things, and building solutions that go from the lowest level of device software to sophisticated services in the cloud
§ You are not afraid of engaging in early stages of customer use cases, where many things are undefined
§ You enjoy sharing ideas; and you communicate clearly
§ You want to roll up the sleeves and build
§ You love what you do, and instinctively know how to make work fun
