Toronto, Ontario, Canada Amazon Development Centre Canada ULC Full time
Are you interested in building hyper-scale database services in the cloud? Do you want to revolutionize the way databases are built for the cloud ? Do you want to have direct and immediate impact on hundreds of thousands of users who use AWS database services?


Amazon Aurora is a MySQL-compatible, relational database engine that combines the speed and availability of high-end commercial databases with the simplicity and cost-effectiveness of open source databases.

It provides up to five times better performance than MySQL at a price point one tenth that of a commercial database while delivering similar performance and availability.

We are looking for passionate engineers to help us deliver industry leading next generation database services for the cloud.

You will be part of the team that architects, designs, and implements highly scalable distributed database systems that provide availability, reliability and performance guarantees.

This is a hands on position where you will have the opportunity to do everything from building highly distributes and scalable components to mentoring other engineers.


If you are interested in getting in on the ground floor within a fast growing business and help shape the technology, product and the business, we would love to hear from you.

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.

Amazon's 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 info
Our team puts a high value on work-live balance.

It isn't about how many hours you spend at home or at work; it's 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.

This position involves on-call responsibilities, typically three days a month, and also includes solving problems reported by customers.

We don't like getting paged in the middle of the night or on the weekend, so we work to ensure that our systems are fault tolerant.

When we do get paged, we work together to resolve the root cause so that we don't get paged for the same issue twice.


Mentorship opportunities
Our team is dedicated to supporting new members.

We have a broad mix of experience levels and tenures, and we're 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.
