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 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.

We enjoy working closely with product, UX, and service engineers to build elegant web applications that delight customers.

The Worldwide Sustainability (WWS) organization capitalizes on Amazon's scale, speed, ability to build, invent, and simplify a resilient and sustainable company. We manage our social and environmental impacts globally and drive solutions that enable our customers, businesses, and the world to become more sustainable.

• Create responsive designs that maintain security integrity across device types
• Integrate frontend applications with Route 53 APIs following secure coding practices
• Implement proper input validation for DNS record creation and modification
• Participate in security reviews for Route 53 console features
• Debug and resolve frontend security issues related to DNS management
