AWS operates one of the world’s largest and most highly available networks which continues to grow rapidly in both size and complexity in response to customer demand. Many AWS customers run mission critical workloads that depend on our networks to be always on. Network Monitoring and Remediation (NMR) is responsible for preventing, predicting, detecting and remediating impairments across our network, both physical and logical, before they cause impact to our customers. We own the software systems that consume trillions of telemetry datapoints per day from the millions of network devices, use various big-data techniques including ML/AI to turn the telemetry into actionable notifications when things go bad, and package them into our event management system for automated mitigation and remediation. For the detected issues that we haven’t yet automated, we provide a suite of expert diagnostic tools that enable our human operators to quickly determine next steps. Our vision is that any failure in the network is pre-emptively remediated before it can cause customer impact by systems that require no human intervention.

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the network — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.
