Software Dev Engineer 2, AWS EKS

Overview Amazon Web Services is looking for Software Development Engineers to join our growing EKS team. Amazon Elastic Container Services for Kubernetes (EKS) is our managed Kubernetes service that makes it easy for customers to use Kubernetes without needing to become experts in provisioning and operating Kubernetes. EKS manages time-consuming administrative tasks like setting up, operating, scaling and updating Kubernetes freeing customers up to focus on their applications. EKS Fargate team provides customers the capability to run their Kubernetes workloads/pods without having to worry about underlying infrastructure. EKS Fargate has a unique growth opportunity given the cross-cutting nature of its technological stack, from managing multi-tenant large scale APIs that take customer requests to setting up single-tenant infrastructure/networking for every customer workload. Customers put their trust in EKS Fargate to completely manage their workloads and we have to get creative in finding the best ways to keep it available and secure for our customers.
