EC2 Accelerated Nitro is an organization that powers the EC2 Nitro instance families, focusing on hypervisors, virtualization and accelerated computing. We build highly operable quiescent hypervisors that provide near bare metal performance to EC2 instances. We also integrate hardware accelerators (GPUs, FPGAs, etc.) into the EC2 instance families to support advanced workloads, such as machine learning, high performance computing, inference or graphics processing.

Key job responsibilities
- Take end to end ownership of the software development life cycle: You will build new solutions across the virtualization software stack; developing virtualization components and automating infrastructure flows. This includes design, testing and deployment.
- Drive operational excellence, improving the quality of the hypervisor and our instance platforms.
- Influence and contribute to the technological roadmap of your team.
- Work with other EC2 teams like hardware, software and firmware groups across the globe, driving innovative solutions.
You will:
- Work with your manager and other engineers in delivering to the roadmap.
- Focus on high quality delivery and operational excellence.
- Solve technical challenges impacting our customers.
EC2 Accelerated Nitro has a two-fold mission:
- Leave no customer workload on-premises by engineering new EC2 instance families with hardware acceleration devices.
- Build the most feature-rich virtualization technology in the cloud.
