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 Lifecycle Engineer with hands on design, manufacturing,
and installation experience of electrical and/or mechanical products. If you
have experience leading product design, have an understanding of electronics,
and know how products should be manufactured to ensure quality you may be a good
fit. You should be capable of understanding detailed electrical equipment
specifications and evaluating the merit and risks of design changes.
As a Global AWS 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 have engineering
ownership of 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%. While most travel will be domestic, some
international travel may be necessary.
