DESCRIPTION

The analytics team is looking for an experienced engineer to join the core engines team.

Athena and EMR are services that our customers use to run large-scale analytics, leveraging open-source engines like Trino and Spark. The analytic engine organization makes significant modifications to these engines to run in serverless environments and with superior performance and scalability compared to what is available in Open Source. In the last 3 years, we have improved our engines by a factor of 5x by making changes to the optimizer, query runtime, and storage connectors. We have also made significant changes to the compiler to enable enterprise features like fine-grain access control. This is a "must-win" strategic area in a growing and very technical space.

We are looking for a hands-on engineer to help us improve the engine further. As an Engineer on the engines team, you will help with the design and implementation of key features and performance optimizations for query engines.
