About this role
Software Development Manager, K8s - EKS, AWS - Amazon EKS Seattle, Washington, USA The mission of Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) is to simplify the deployment, management, and scaling of Kubernetes applications in the cloud or on-premises. We're growing the organization to keep pace with EKS's rapid adoption, and this role leads one of the teams responsible for the infrastructure that keeps EKS running reliably for customers at scale. You'll own the services customers depend on every day to manage their EKS clusters at scale. And you'll build the next generation of multi-cluster capabilities that make operating hundreds of clusters feel simple. What You'll Own You'll lead a team that owns three things. First, the foundational services that power EKS APIs. These are mature, critical systems you'll evolve as EKS launches new capabilities. Second, the availability and resiliency of the management plane itself: health monitoring, automated recovery, safe deployments, and fault isolation that keep customers unaffected when things go wrong. Third, multi cluster management at scale, making it straightforward for customers to orchestrate upgrades and manage lifecycle operations across their entire fleet. What You'll Solve The problems here are real and unsolved. How do you keep a management plane available at industry leading levels while shipping features weekly? How do you make fleet wide upgrades across thousands of clusters safe and simple? How do you evolve billing and metering systems to support new pricing models without breaking existing customers? You'll define the roadmap, make the trade offs, and deliver. What
