About the team
About the Simulations Team

The Simulations team owns What-If Billing Service (WIBS) within AWS Bill Generation. WIBS lets customers model and estimate billing outcomes before they commit the engine behind answering what would this cost at AWS scale.

Were at an inflection point. Were re-platforming WIBS onto Horizon our next-generation architecture to significantly improve scalability and parallel were onboarding a major new customer directly onto that new architecture. That means the engineer joining us will work across two of the most impactful problems a team can have at once:
modernizing a foundational service and standing up a new customer on it shaping the target-state design rather than just maintaining what exists.

Youll join a team of five engineers with deep ownership of the billing simulation domain. As an L5 youll own significant components of the Horizon migration end to end drive projects to completion with limited guidance and have real influence on architectural decisions as we build for the next order of magnitude of scale.
