## Description

This is a highly technical back-end position working on our distributed health checking infrastructure and public API. Our service runs primarily on a Java and Linux-based stack with lots of interaction with different public AWS services and Amazon-internal tools. Each member of our team brings a different technical background to the table, but we all enjoy using our knowledge and insights to make things easier for our customers. We don't expect you to be an expert in, or necessarily even be familiar with, all of the languages and technologies we use, but we do expect you to be excited to learn about them!

About the team

Our team is responsible for operating as well as developing our service, and this position will involve on-call responsibilities. We rotate this responsibility between all our team members; in the past this has meant being available on nights and weekends about once every two months. We don't like getting paged, so we work to ensure that our systems are well built, well tested and 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.
