Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Sr. Software Development Engineer, AWS Networking: MONA - **Company:** Amazon.com, Inc. - **Location:** Seattle, WA, United States - **Experience:** Expert - **Salary:** $168,100.0 - $227,400.0 - **Contract:** Internship / Graduate position - **Skills:** Artificial Intelligence, Amazon Web Services, Code Review, Computer Programming, Data Centers, Software Design Patterns, Network Control, Software Engineering, Planning Software, Build Management, Information Technology, SDN Network, Build Process, Software Coding, Software Version Control, Programming Languages - **Published:** August 27, 2026 - **Apply:** https://dejobs.org/x/x/D8E4C8FD6E3345EDABB03E3EF94AE950/job/ ## About the Role * 7+ years of non-internship professional software development experience * 7+ years of programming with at least one software programming language experience * 7+ years of leading design or architecture (design patterns, reliability and scaling) of new and existing systems experience * Experience as a mentor, tech lead or leading an engineering team, * 5+ years of full software development life cycle, including coding standards, code reviews, source control management, build processes, testing, and operations experience * Master's degree in computer science or equivalent * 4+ years of highly scalable systems experience ## Description * Partner with the engineering manager to shape the team's software strategy - architecture, roadmap, and long-term vision - for the in-house systems behind a 1M+ device network (everything we run, we build ourselves). * Design and build the in-house systems that solve our business problems - controllers, software-defined networking (SDN), and planning software - end-to-end, architected to scale with robust tests and metrics. * Own and evolve our controller for agentic network auto-remediation that detects and resolves network issues automatically. * Build the planning software that plans every new data center - capacity, racks, and ports - and deploys new network fabric. * Own out-of-band management-plane services: serial console access to every server and router, plus managed connectivity such as SSH. * Drive correctness and safety for automation acting on production networks: idempotency, guardrails, and observability that proves work actually happened. * Lead design reviews, raise the operational-excellence and code-quality bar, and mentor engineers. * Participate in on-call and help lead high-severity incident response. A day in the life No two days look the same. One morning you are whiteboarding with the manager and a principal engineer on how to evolve the control plane for the next wave of AI data centers; the next you are deep in a greenfield auto-remediation service that resolves faults automatically instead of paging a human at 3am. You will make a teammate's design better, unblock a data-center build with capacity planning, and harden out-of-band console access to a million devices. You will see your work land at a scale almost nowhere else can offer - with real autonomy and teammates sharp enough to make you better. ## Related Videos - [30 powerful AWS hacks in just 30 minutes: Boost your developer productivity](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1624-30-powerful-aws-hacks-in-just-30-minutes-boost-your-developer-productivity) - [The Sustainability Race: AI's Promises, Pitfalls and Potential](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100155-the-sustainability-race-ai-s-promises-pitfalls-and-potential) - [Are Code Reviews Worth It?
