The Elastic Network Adapter (ENA) group at Annapurna Labs, Amazon Web Services, is responsible for developing and maintaining the firmware and network drivers for custom-built network interface controller designed for high performance and low latency networking in the cloud. ENA is a critical component of Amazon's cloud infrastructure, enabling efficient and reliable network communication for various AWS services and customer workloads. ENA is at the heart of the cloud, playing a key role, and used by millions of customers. ENA firmware is part of Network Express firmware running on the Nitro controller. ENA firmware is responsible for network interfaces’ management, hardware resources configurations, hardware network acceleration settings, packet processing, accurate time sync, and interfaces with the host operating system and virtualization layers. ENA drivers are available for all supported operating systems (Linux, Windows, DPDK, FreeBSD, MacOS) and run on the host virtual machine. The ENA drivers are open-source and available in the official Amazon drivers github and corresponding operating systems’ repositories. The ENA drivers are responsible to manage the interface between the Nitro controller and the virtual instance, manage resources and configurations, and implement various networking enhanced features. Responsibilities include: • Manage a group of 25 Software Developer Engineers across 3 teams • Drive high-quality, well-designed, robust, and scalable feature deliveries • Launch new EC2 instance-types and next-gen Nitro cards • Oversee high-availability, operations, customer escalations, quality, and monitoring in EC2 fleet • Establish and track key performance KPIs • Define and execute on yearly goals, long-term roadmaps, and short-term priorities • Facilitate cross-team coordination to ensure seamless integration and alignment with organizational milestones • Focus on people management, coaching, career development, and top-talent recruitment
