Do you want to revolutionize how film and television content is created? Are you passionate about building cloud infrastructure that powers the future of media production? Do you thrive on solving complex technical challenges that directly impact award‑winning productions? At Amazon, we’re transforming the entertainment industry by moving post‑production workflows to the cloud. The Studio in the Cloud (SITC) Production Platform Engineering team builds and maintains the infrastructure that enables productions to perform Editorial, Dailies, Color, Conform, VFX, Sound, QC, Mastering, and Delivery entirely in AWS. We’re looking for a Systems Development Engineer who can bridge the gap between traditional media workflows and modern cloud infrastructure. You’ll work with AWS services to solve problems that have never been solved at this scale—enabling creative teams worldwide to collaborate seamlessly on productions worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

Build new cloud-native capabilities for VFX rendering and management, sound mixing, QC, mastering, delivery, and remote production workflows
Improve and scale existing Editorial, Dailies, Color, and Conform workflows supporting active productions
Translate complex post‑production workflows into infrastructure‑as‑code using CloudFormation or CDK
Troubleshoot production‑impacting issues across the full stack—from network configurations to application‑level bugs—diving as deep as needed to unblock creative teams
Design and implement solutions using AWS compute, storage, and networking services optimized for high‑throughput media workloads
Build secure infrastructure following AWS best practices for encryption (at‑rest and in‑transit), IAM policies, VPC design, and authentication mechanisms
Collaborate with Product Management and internal Production Technology teams to translate requirements into technical solutions
Automate operational tasks and build self‑service tools that empower production teams
About the Team
The Production Platform Engineering team sits at the intersection of entertainment and technology. We support productions ranging from episodic series to feature films, ensuring creative teams have the tools and infrastructure they need to deliver world‑class content.

Experience with CI/CD pipelines build processes
Experience in systems engineering, DevOps, or cloud infrastructure roles
Proven ability to troubleshoot complex, multi‑layered technical problems and drive them to resolution
Hands‑on experience migrating or building workflows in AWS (EC2, S3, VPC, EBS, FSx, etc.)
Strong understanding of infrastructure‑as‑code principles and tools (CloudFormation, CDK, Terraform, or similar)
Deep knowledge of both Windows and Linux/Unix systems administration
Experience with networking concepts (VPCs, subnets, security groups, routing, VPNs)
Understanding of AWS security best practices including encryption, IAM policies, least‑privilege access, and secure network design
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with development in a distributed systems environment
Experience with version control systems and CI/CD pipeline implementation
Background in media and entertainment, particularly post‑production workflows (Editorial, VFX, Color, Sound, Delivery)
