Original job description

Come join the growing RDS Aurora Serverless Control Plane team, innovating on behalf of our customers on a service that:

- Reliably manages a large fleet of cloud native databases for our customers freeing them from traditional database operations
- Guarantees best-in-class availability and failover capabilities to sustain the world’s most demanding workloads
- Orchestrates and automates the complete lifecycle of a database cluster from creation to operation to scale-up, scale-out and fail-over

Amazon Aurora Serverless Control Plane does all this and more. Amazon Aurora is a cloud-native relational database which combines the scalability and performance of the best NoSQL databases paired with full compatibility to the most popular relational open source databases - MySQL and PostgreSQL. Amazon Aurora can store petabytes of customer data and can handle peaks of millions of queries per second. As one of the fastest-growing services at the core of the AWS Cloud and also one of the largest managed database services in our business, your engineering decisions have widespread impact across AWS, Amazon, and beyond. Many of the world's fastest growing businesses depend on the scale and performance of Amazon Aurora and its control plane to support their mission-critical workloads. We continue to believe it is Day 1 for the Amazon Aurora business. We are constantly improving and adding new capabilities to Amazon Aurora.

Key job responsibilities
- Grow and foster talent from Junior to Senior devs on a daily basis
- Establish mechanisms to efficiently run the team and help prioritize and balance the backlog
- Work with PM and other engineering teams on roadmap strategy and prioritization
- Share updates to the leadership team on the teams deliverables
- Review designs and help shape the teams design documents
- Manage and drive the operational ownership of the team

A day in the life
As a Software Development Manager in this role, you will own a core part of the Control Plane charter, responsible for Aurora Serverless v2 and its wide array of enterprise features.

- You will work in a highly collaborative, diverse and engaging environment that attracts talent and provides ample opportunities to grow and learn.
- You will have the freedom to shape how the team works and what mechanisms and processes you want to establish to achieve the teams and organizations goals and deliver results to our customers. This role gives you the opportunity to have an impact on the future of Aurora and its future growth.
- Provide technical direction and guidance to the team you are working with. Our engineers know that building a control plane to manage large scale cloud native databases is fun and challenging. It is not just any distributed system. It is a system orchestrating a distributed storage engine operating with petabyte scale data sets, real-time node failure detection mechanisms, multi-datacenter and cross-continent replication.
- You will coach junior and intermediate members of the team to become established contributors to our service by providing interesting and aspirational projects and mentoring them to successfully complete them.
- You will collaborate with senior engineers to work on large and complex features that have impact across different teams in the organization and high value for our customers.
- Work directly with our customers to gather feedback and understand their use-cases. Together with the Aurora leadership this will help you to shape a vision for the team and define and align roadmap and deliveries with our product management.
- Lead the delivery of new features both customer-facing and improving operational and technical efficiency of the solution. You will have an impact on our new offerings by taking advantage of your knowledge of industry trends and engineering tradeoffs and your ability to listen and understand the customer.
- You will be a thoughtful steward of existing systems, appropriately challenging assumptions and driving change when necessary to allow us to scale for growth.

This is a hands-on position in which you will be asked to show ownership. If you are technically knowledgeable and a good collaborator and communicator that can lead with empathy for our customers and engineers, then this is for you. We don’t need you to be an expert in databases. You will have a chance to learn on the go. We rather appreciate curiosity and craftsmanship over knowledge in specific technologies. At the same time you will benefit from interacting with many of the talented people within AWS and they will help you improve and expand your management and technical skills on a daily basis.
