SDE for the active monitoring network team within AWS. Write software to monitor Amazon's border network (global scale). Personal duties include writing the software which sends pings (extremely high scale; asynchronous design), developing new, novel techniques for tracerouting, and helping improve the error-localization algorithm. Job combines R&D, design, architecture, coding (Python, C, C++), testing, deployment, operations, AND interfacing with customers directly. Detail-oriented work with very high business impact. Everything from low-level kernel network optimization to high-scale load-balanced enterprise services. Experience using most major AWS services (S3, EC2, IAM, DynamoDB, RDS, etc).
Also briefly worked on business-oriented workflow software using Ruby on Rails, Java, and Scala.
