Description

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 are a true owner - you are deeply interested in product design and you innovate on behalf of our customers. We have a very flat team structure and offer a unique opportunity for technical leaders who want to work closely with the business in defining, designing, building and operating products that are used by millions of customers.

Key job responsibilities
