As a senior software engineer in the Billing Egress team within the AWS Commerce Platform, you will be responsible for building highly scalable and performant solutions to optimize the storage and access mechanisms for the large volume of bill compute data. You will leverage cutting-edge technologies in distributed computing, databases, and data engineering, to drive a paradigm shift in how data is made accessible to our downstream consumers.

AWS Commerce Platform provides the infrastructure and services that enable AWS teams to sell their services to AWS customers, as well as help AWS customers understand and manage their infrastructure costs. AWS Commerce Platform computes the bills for AWS customers based on their usage, invoices them and collects payments.

The Billing Egress team owns and manages services and components responsible for exporting billions of charge line items for millions of AWS customers. These data feeds enable customers to make critical business decisions around their cloud workloads, providing them with a comprehensive understanding of their infrastructure costs.

You will architect and implement high-performance systems capable of handling massive data volumes and concurrent workloads with very low latency. You will work on identifying and implementing various optimization techniques like data partitioning, indexing, schema evolution, query optimization, and building optimized read interfaces to ensure low-latency data access for our downstream consumers. You will collaborates with the infrastructure team to leverage cutting-edge distributed computing technologies for efficient and fast data processing.

As a senior engineer, you will lead a cross-functional initiative to build a centralized data platform that consolidates and unifies data from multiple sources enabling consumers to access and analyze data in a single, optimized, and standardized manner. You will drive new initiatives for building solutions that ensure data integrity, transparency, and traceability, delivering highly relevant, understandable, and reliable data to customers. This approach will be a paradigm change in how the customers access, discover, and utilize data, equipping stakeholders with comprehensive and unified data insights that enable informed decision-making.
