Job summary
Linux, bash, C/C, lua - embedded software systems at cloud scale! Amazon EC2 provides reliable, scalable cloud computing on demand. With our AWS EC2 Nitro System, we break apart traditional hypervisor functions like CPU virtualization, storage, and networking, and offload them to dedicated hardware and software. This enables us to deliver practically all of the resources of a server to customer instances, innovate faster, increase security, deliver new instance types, and reduce customer cost.

The EC2 Nitro Linux team is looking for engineers with systems knowledge and experience in developing kernel features, bringing up Linux on new platforms, and tooling associated with the performance characterization, qualification, software install, and deployment of Linux on embedded cards. Nitro Linux is a secure, embedded environment that is integrated with the Nitro control plane and provides services supporting live updates, logs and metrics collection, core dump collection, and system health monitoring.

This team creates the very core of the cloud, and is directly responsible for radically changing and improving the way that people use computers - come help us make history!

We have a diverse team and drive towards an inclusive culture and work environment. Our team intentional about attracting, developing, and retaining amazing talent from diverse backgrounds. Team members are active in Amazon's 10+ affinity groups, sometimes known as employee resource groups, which bring employees together across businesses and locations around the world. These range from groups such as the Black Employee Network, Latinos at Amazon, Families at Amazon, Amazon Women and Engineering, Glamazon (our LGBTQ+ community), and more.

You'd join our team located in Sunnyvale, CA. Across from Moffett Federal Airfield, our Sunnyvale office holds research and development subsidiary Amazon Lab126 and teams focused on developing the future for Amazon devices.
