Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) has revolutionized the way companies obtain computing resources. With Amazon EC2, companies run their systems in the cloud with complete control, reliably, at scale, and only pay for the capacity they actually use. The EC2 Host Lifecycle Management team owns software that manages the lifecycle of hosts in the EC2 fleet. We orchestrate maintenance to minimize customer impact through monitoring, maximize efficiency through automation, and increase transparency with reliable information. Responsibilities include direct management of software engineers, strategic planning, product definition, managing operational challenges at scale, project management for software within the team, and quality of the software development process. Additionally, as our organization is growing, hiring top-notch engineers will be a key focus.
