Annapurna Labs is the team behind the custom silicon and systems at the heart of AWS (Amazon Web Services) infrastructure — we operate like a start-up with the scale of the world's largest cloud provider.

Annapurna Labs, as part of Amazon, is looking for a System Integration Engineer to join the System Nitro Team and be part of defining, shaping and integrating solutions to next generation of our cloud platforms. Our success depends on our world-class server infrastructure; we’re handling massive scale and rapid integration of emergent technologies.

Key job responsibilities
