Our team builds the telemetry used across Amazon's operations to catch and diagnose availability issues before they affect the people relying on that infrastructure. We develop the software and services that generate, collect, and analyze network and infrastructure telemetry at scale. In this role, you'll design and build the services and agents that make telemetry data available and impactful. The role includes writing and maintaining agents that run on a range of compute platforms, including network devices, Linux-based clients, and robotics platforms. You'll also build the backend services that analyze and distribute metrics and insights and also control configurations, storage, and reporting., * Design, build, and maintain software services that operate reliably at scale. * Write and maintain agents that run across multiple device platforms, including network devices, Linux-based clients, and robotics platforms, working at the layer where hardware and software meet. * Get into the low-level details of running software on varied hardware: packaging, deployment, permissions, configuration, and service lifecycle across different operating systems and device types. * Build the backend services that process, analyze, and distribute data and handle configuration, storage, and reporting. * Debug problems across the full stack, from the operating system and networking layer on the device up through the backend services. Improve the performance, reliability, and quality of the systems the team owns., The Telemetry Engineering team prioritizes creating trustworthy signals and responding to feedback from consumers. We iterate quickly and aim to ship improvements and features regularly to deliver value continuously. Team members work closely with partner teams who depend on timely delivery of accurate data. ## Related Videos - [Navigating the Corporate Jungle: Life as a Developer in a large Company](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/621-navigating-the-corporate-jungle-life-as-a-developer-in-a-large-company) - [Docker network without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1418-docker-network-without-docker) - [Coffee with Developers: David Heinemeier Hansson](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/875-coffee-with-developers-david-heinemeier-hansson) - [Remote Driving on Plant Grounds with State-of-the-Art Cloud Technologies](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/251-remote-driving-on-plant-grounds-with-state-of-the-art-cloud-technologies) - [Docker exec without Docker](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1094-docker-exec-without-docker) - [Coroutine explained yet again 60 years later](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/690-coroutine-explained-yet-again-60-years-later) ## Related Articles - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated) - [Best Countries for Software Engineers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/267-best-countries-for-software-engineers) - [What’s the Difference between a Junior, Mid, and Senior Developer?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/238-what-s-the-difference-between-a-junior-mid-and-senior-developer) - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market)
