EC2 Nitro drives the planet’s largest, fastest growing and most feature-rich compute cloud. Nitro is AWS’s ground-up design for virtualization at global scale built on a fully custom stack of hardware, firmware and applications. Nitro has enabled EC2 to support Intel, AMD and Amazon’s custom silicon - Graviton3 - while raising the industry bar for security and performance across our product line. The Nitro Team is looking for engineers with systems knowledge and experience in area such as Linux OS boot sequencing, Kernel, Hypervisor (Xen or KVM), peripheral device development (PCIe or NVMe) and building compute infrastructure to support High Memory and High performance computing workloads.

The Nitro High Memory and HPC team owns the purpose built platform development for the High performance computing workloads and database workloads like SAP, Oracle and SQL with tens of terra-byte of memories. Team interfaces directly with system BIOS for bare-metal instances and drives critical system interactions within the Nitro Hypervisor and across EC2 control-plane services. We need engineers with the dive-deep and ownership to work across domains (such as PC peripheral firmware or Linux Kernel internals) to deliver features and new instance types for our customers. Work is typically done in C/C++ or Rust with supporting script and tests in Python and Lua.
