Software Development Engineer - Neptune, The AWS In-Memory Databases Console Team
The In-Memory and Emerging DB organization drives innovation across Amazon's
managed database services, owning and evolving the management consoles that serve over
295,000 monthly active users. Our console team spans five distinct database services –
ElastiCache, MemoryDB, DocumentDB, Timestream, and Neptune – and this role is dedicated
to the Neptune Console

Amazon Neptune is a fast, scalable, fully-managed graph database service used by thousands
of customers worldwide. Neptune powers a rich variety of graph use cases including
recommendation engines, fraud prevention, knowledge graphs, and drug discovery. The service
supports both the Resource Description Framework (RDF) and property graph data models,
along with their respective query languages.
This is a unique opportunity to shape the customer-facing console experience for one of the
fastest-growing graph database services in the industry. To learn more about Amazon Neptune visit: https://aws.amazon.com/neptune/

Our team understands and values work life balance. Most days, our entire team is co-located in the Dublin office, but support occasional remote work if needed. We generally keep core in-office hours from 10am to 4pm and provide flexibility for people to structure their working hours around them.

The role involves day time on-call responsibilities, typically once every 2-3 months. We don’t like to get paged in the middle of the night or on weekends; so we investigate operational gaps on a weekly basis, proactively root-cause issues and fix them for good.

Our team has a mixture of engineers from diverse backgrounds and tenures. We are dedicated to supporting new team members through on-boarding buddies and mentorship.

We try to assign projects based on each team member’s unique background and provide them opportunities to learn new skills to make them better rounded engineers. We celebrate knowledge sharing and encourage each member to participate and learn through team wide design reviews.

Our team is intentional in building a daily work environment where mutual respect, equity and positive recognition of differences are cultivated. We seek diverse perspectives in our team meetings and respect honest feedback to help us make effective decisions.

We are looking for experienced engineers who are enthusiastic, empathetic, curious, motivated, reliable, and able to work effectively with a diverse team of peers; someone who will help us amplify the positive and inclusive team culture we’ve been building, while being excited to solve database problems and getting things done.

Amazon Neptune is a part of AWS Utility Computing (UC) which provides product innovations — from foundational services such as Amazon’s Simple Storage Service (S3) and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), to consistently released new product innovations that continue to set AWS’s services and features apart in the industry. As a member of the UC organization, you’ll support the development and management of Compute, Database, Storage, Internet of Things (Iot), Platform, and Productivity Apps services in AWS, including support for customers who require specialized security solutions for their cloud services.
