Description

　　The Robot Detection team is seeking for a Software Development Engineer passionate about big data technologies, cybersecurity and machine learning. We combine these three areas to accomplish the mission to isolate traffic generated by web bots on Amazon’s customer-facing websites and applications.

　　You'll have the freedom (and encouragement) to experiment, improve, invent, and innovate on behalf of our customers.

　　Key job responsibilities

　　You’ll be responsible for implementing state-of-the-art tools and scalable distributed systems to automatically process and analyze billions of hits per day using parallel algorithms on top of Amazon Web Services’ cloud-computing infrastructure.

　　You will research for novel methodologies to separate traffic data originated from web bots from the one originated from human customers. When processing systems part of team's portfolio cannot accommodate these new methodologies, you will either redesign them, either propose, design and implement new ones.

　　The ideal candidate for our team is a thinker and a doer: someone who loves sophisticated algorithms and mathematical precision, but at the same time enjoys implementing real large-scale distributed systems.

　　A day in the life

　　You have a constant focus on latest trends in terms of web bots. You are part of the working groups root causing events caused by bot generated traffic. You make sure the tooling your team owns is still relevant in terms of accommodating logic to detect latest bot entities, and when not, are part of major system redesigns.

　　About the team

　　The web traffic classification provided by our group enables teams to improve their services availability, gather reliable business metrics and provide the best experience to both customers and robots.
