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.
As a Product Lifecycle Engineer, you will provide electrical infrastructure
support to AWS data centers, specifically within the medium voltage switchgear
and transformer product category. You will collaborate with the product
development team to gain a deep understanding of all facets of each product as
they are being developed and tested, then take engineering ownership of the
product through its operational life. You will be a global subject matter expert
for electrical products deployed in data centers.
We are looking for engineers with hands-on design, manufacturing, and
installation experience. The right candidate will have led product design
efforts, have an understanding of electronics, and know how products should be
manufactured to ensure quality. They should be capable of understanding detailed
equipment specifications and evaluating the merit and risks of design changes.
Amazon has a global presence. Travel will be necessary but is not expected to
exceed 30%. International support will be part of the job, and some
international travel may be required. Contributions could include leading
international projects and developing engineering information packages. An
understanding of international electrical product design requirements is helpful
but not necessary.
Key job responsibilities
- Review, update, and approve equipment submittals
- Work with global electrical equipment suppliers and manufacturers
- Build trust and relationships with different stakeholders (e.g. reliability,
operations, design, compliance)
- Work on concurrent projects, in multiple geographic zones
- Understand and explain complex systems in clear and concise language
- Provide support to Field Engineering for root cause analysis, with
collaboration with quality team for component-level investigations, maintenance
and troubleshooting support, and operating procedure review for both mechanical
and electrical issues.
- 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
A day in the life
In this role, you'll focus on the electrical products that form the backbone of
AWS data centers worldwide. You might start your day reviewing equipment
submittals and specifications, then transition into a collaborative session with
our product development team to understand how new electrical systems are being
designed and tested. You'll work across multiple geographic zones
simultaneously, sometimes supporting field engineering teams through root cause
analysis investigations, other times partnering with global suppliers to explore
design improvements. Your work includes translating complex electrical systems
into clear documentation and guidance for operations teams, while staying
connected to how your decisions impact customer reliability and availability.
You'll also contribute to our collective knowledge base, sharing insights that
help drive continuous improvement across our global infrastructure.
