Description

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.

You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

Amazon Web Services is seeking an electrical engineer to be part of a global engineering team responsible for ownership and continuous improvement related to electrical infrastructure products within our rapidly expanding data center footprint. This position can be based out of Herndon VA, Austin, TX, Columbus, OH, or Seattle, WA and is expected to work from the office a minimum of 3 days per week.

We are looking for engineers with hands on electrical infrastructure design and product development experience. If you can design electrical systems, have an understanding of the critical equipment needs for a data center, and understand the constructability of varying designs you may be a good fit. You should be capable of understanding equipment specifications and evaluating the merit of design changes.

As a Global Amazon Product Lifecycle Engineer, you will provide electrical infrastructure support to AWS data centers. You will collaborate with the product development team to gain deep understanding of all facets of each product as they are being developed and tested, and then support the product through its operational life. You will be a global ‘go-to’ engineering resource for electrical AWS products deployed in data centers.

Amazon has a global presence. Intermittent travel will be necessary and should be expected to be around 30% and at some times possibly reaching up to 50%. While most travel will be domestic, some international travel may be necessary.

Key job responsibilities

• Possess strong engineering judgement and are able to provide recommendations despite uncertainty

• Collaborate with other disciplines such as mechanical engineering, reliability, operations, and compliance

• Are detail and data oriented

• Have experience engineering data center projects and/or products

• Review, update, and approve equipment submittals

• Work with global electrical equipment suppliers and manufacturers

• Build trust and relationships with different stakeholders (e.g. operations, design)

• Work on concurrent projects, in multiple geographic zones

• Understand and explain complex systems in clear and concise language

• Support Operations including failure mode and root cause analysis, maintenance and troubleshooting support, and operating procedure review.

• Listen to the voice of the customer to understand if there are improvements that can be made to increase product reliability or availability

• Work with global supplier and manufacturers to design product improvements, and to oversee root cause analysis

• Contribute to our global body of knowledge and drive a cycle of continuous improvement at a global scale
