About This Role
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.
Within Infrastructure Services and Data Center Engineering, the Electrical
Products and Services team is developing resilient electrical distribution
products and systems. Our designs are fundamentally changing the data center,
providing operational and financial benefits that are critical to the success of
the AWS business and its millions of customers. Our engineers solve challenging
technology problems and take big bets on new concepts, enabling AWS services to
continue to revolutionize the industry.
We're seeking a Product Design Mechanical Engineer to own end to end product
design and development of electrical power distribution equipment such as Low
Voltage Switchgear and Power Distribution Cabinets. You will directly lead
product design and development and be a part of the process from concept to
implementation. You must be capable of defining equipment specifications and
evaluating the merit of design changes. The ideal candidate brings experience
working on end to end electro-mechanical product design and manufacturing.
This position requires approximately 30% travel to AWS offices, data centers,
suppliers, vendors, and product validation sites. While most travel is domestic,
some international travel may be required.
Open to hiring this position in Austin, Atlanta, Columbus, Northern Virginia or
Seattle.
Key job responsibilities
- Work with internal partner teams to solicit customer input and define design
requirements for product design.
- Lead new product design, development and qualification of critical electrical
power distribution equipment for AWS data centers including LV and MV
switchgear, power distribution cabinets and panels.
- Ensure compliance with UL, CSA, IEC and federal, state and municipal
requirements and building codes across different countries through appropriate
levels of testing.
- Validate design through prototype, pre-production and first-of-kind builds,
conducting DFx and value engineering analysis through each step and updating
design and documentation.
- Work with field engineering and commissioning teams to properly test and
validate installation, operation, and performance of electrical products.
- Ability to provide support for manufacturing activities for the new products
on concurrent projects in multiple geographical locations.
- Be a leader within the product development team as well as within internal and
external teams that support the data center.
