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.
Amazon Web Services is hiring a Senior Product Design Electrical Engineer for
our Electrical Products and Services (EPS) team. EPS is a global engineering
team within AWS Data Center Engineering, responsible for the design,
development, and continuous improvement of electrical power distribution
products used across our rapidly expanding data center footprint. Our product
portfolio spans the full electrical distribution chain, including medium voltage
switchgear, medium voltage transformers, low voltage switchgear, generators,
busduct, transfer switches, power distribution cabinets, and other critical
electrical infrastructure.
The EPS team works to design and develop resilient, cost-effective electrical
distribution products and systems. As an engineer at Amazon, they are
responsible for achieving world class uptime for our customers. They drive
continuous advancements and improvements with our designs and communicate
technical direction to senior leadership. They seek new ways to improve the
reliability, scalability, and cost effectiveness of our engineering designs. As
an engineer at Amazon, they have the opportunity to design, innovate, and
improve the products our customers rely on.
Amazon offers a work environment where speed and quality matter. We continue to
grow and are looking for individuals that can support our speed to market, enjoy
a challenge, and have a desire for professional growth and continuous learning.
Amazon's work environment is unique in every aspect and offers a great
opportunity for the right candidate.
If you have led or worked with high performing teams of engineers and enjoy
working on complex problems, we want to hear from you. At Amazon, the successful
candidate will be responsible for working on product designs and supporting our
wide variety of customers. Great ideas are encouraged and supported. Ingenuity
is the main mechanism which supports our focus on quality, speed, and cost.
At Amazon, teamwork is necessary for us to accomplish our goals. The successful
candidate must be able to work within a team and depend on others to accomplish
the required work. As a product engineer at Amazon, they will work with other
internal groups as well as external groups including engineering service
providers, manufacturers, vendors, inspectors, third party testing labs, and
contractors.
Amazon has a global presence. Travel will be necessary but should not be more
than 30%. International support will be part of the job, and some international
travel may be necessary. Their contribution could consist of leading
international projects and could require developing engineering information
packages. An understanding of international electrical product design
requirements is helpful but not necessary.
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 medium voltage

- 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.
- Provide support for manufacturing activities for new products on concurrent
