About the Team: The Cloud Access Gateways (CAG) team, within Traffic Engineering, is revolutionizing how Amazon services connect with the cloud. We build industry-leading solutions that simplify internet ingress, service connectivity, and cloud access experiences. Our infrastructure processes tens of millions of requests per minute through three key pillars: OPF (Internet Ingress Gateway and reverse proxy), Cross-Region Access Gateways (seamless cross-region connectivity), and Cloud Access Builder Experience (service orchestration and onboarding).

About the Role:
Cloud Access Builder Experience (CABX) helps SDO builders manage and secure their service and resource configurations through multiple user interfaces (UI - JumpStart Console, ServiceLens Console, and CDK). SDO builders use CloudAuth to secure services and their dependencies, while managing network connectivity through the ServiceLens Console. The ServiceLens console require enhancement to improve end-to-end builder experience , necessitating a skilled SDE2 with strong UX expertise. This role will be crucial in architecting and implementing advanced user experience improvements, developing streamlined builder-driven workflows, and creating reusable UI components that align with modern design patterns. The ideal candidate will possess strong frontend development skills (React/TypeScript), complex web application architecture experience, and a proven track record of delivering user-centric solutions. This position will directly impact our platform's adoption and user satisfaction by reducing time-to-value, improving usability, and enhancing self-service capabilities. The role is essential for maintaining our competitive edge in the observability space and achieving our platform growth objectives through an improved, intuitive user experience.
