Description

　　Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) is on a mission to revolutionize email experiences for our customers and their end users. We are at the forefront of creating richer, more engaging email functionalities, innovating at every step to provide a seamless, unified experience.

　　In the SES team, you will be responsible for a fast-growing program with broad-reaching and a service wide impact. As a member of the SES engineering team, your job will allow you to work with customers and other technology leaders at Amazon to help translate strategic business needs into features and projects. You will then work with your team to deliver those features and projects more quickly than many people may think is possible.

　　We are seeking a hands-on engineering manager for a mid-sized team, with the experience and familiarity in designing, building, and operating large-scale web, fault-tolerant, and distributed systems.

We offer flexibility in working hours and encourage you to find your own balance between work and personal life.
