Amazon Redshift is the world's most popular fully managed cloud data warehouse. Tens of thousands of enterprise customers use Redshift to crunch through
exabytes of data in the cloud to make business critical decisions every day. To stay ahead in such a mission critical setting, at Redshift, we must always re-
invent ourselves for customers. We are always looking for innovative engineers to help shape the future of Redshift.

We are actively hiring talented software engineers in the storage team of Redshift. The storage layer is the foundation of Redshift's distributed data
warehouse architecture, responsible for managing data durability, availability, storage elasticity, and high-throughput operations at scale.

- Design and implement distributed storage systems that power Redshift's massively parallel data warehouse architecture.
- Build and optimize storage layer operations to deliver consistent, high-performance reads and writes at petabyte scale.
- Design storage elasticity solutions that enable clusters to seamlessly scale storage capacity based on workload demands.
- Design and operate large-scale distributed systems with a focus on durability, fault tolerance, and availability.
- Identify opportunities for performance improvement through in-depth analysis of storage access patterns and data layouts.
- Work on integration between Redshift storage and other AWS services in the AWS ecosystem, including data ingestion, backup, replication, and disaster recovery.
- Deploy and monitor new features in a highly available and fault tolerant system running in the cloud.
- Mentor other engineers, providing technical guidance and helping to build a fast-growing team.

This is a unique and rare opportunity to get in on the ground floor within a fast-growing business and help shape the technology powering analytical workloads
for Fortune 500 companies, startups, and everything in between. You will bring deep technical, systems design, and coding expertise with the ability to work
