Software Engineering Intern, Web
About the position
Are you passionate about building with Rust, formal verification, cryptography, and PKI? Join us to drive security as the #1 feature across all our services. At AWS, our services lead the industry in security, durability, reliability, and performance. We're looking for talented Software Development Engineers (SDEs) who share our mission and want their work to have resounding impact. You'll work on cutting-edge systems and tools that empower our customers with complete control over access to their data and metadata. In this role, you will work alongside talented software and security professionals to design, build, test, document, and provide operational support for AWS-wide systems that protect customer data. You will collaborate with AWS services in Databases, Analytics, and AI/ML to understand their operational posture, to build tools and security guidance such that these services maintain our high security standards. Investigating and mechanistically mitigating security issues and risks will be a key part of your responsibilities. As you design and code solutions to help our team drive efficiencies in software architecture, you'll create metrics, implement automation and other improvements, and resolve the root cause of software defects. You will work cross-functionally to help drive business decisions with your technical input. We have a broad mix of experience levels and tenures, and we're building an environment that celebrates knowledge-sharing and mentorship. Our senior members enjoy one-on-one mentoring and thorough, but kind, code reviews. We care about your career growth and strive to assign projects that help our team members develop their engineering expertise so you feel empowered to take on more complex tasks in the future. Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world's most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating - that's why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empowers us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there's nothing we can't achieve in the cloud. We're continuously raising our performance bar as we strive to become Earth's Best Employer. That's why you'll find endless knowledge-sharing, mentorship, and other career-advancing resources here to help you develop into a better-rounded professional. Our team affords employees options to work in the office every day or in a flexible, hybrid work model near one of our US Amazon offices. Our hybrid models allow you the freedom to work from home whenever in-office collaboration isn't necessary.
