The purpose of this role is to oversee and perform quality assurance and quality control process mapping for the review, tracking, and management of design drawings, specifications and documents prepared during the engineering design process in order to ensure regulatory, legal, and security compliance. You will work alongside internal partner teams such as Engineering, Power and Cooling (PAC), Security, Controls, and Commissioning to build Data Centers that directly support our customers to resolve quality and process issues.

To be a successful Amazon Design Engineering Application Manager:

The Applications Manager needs to have a positive attitude, knowledge of the commercial industry design and construction process, experience reviewing technical and contractual documentation, and strong communication skills.

You will have experience developing solutions for Project Management Information Systems (PMIS) such as Procore, BIM360, or E-builder and experience with building solutions with Smartsheet, Microsoft PowerApps or Microsoft Sharepoint for large scale Architecture, Engineering, and/or Construction organizations.

The Applications Manager manages the intake of design consultant documentation and data, reviews documentation for quality compliance and completeness, and updates stakeholders with progress of the final workflow documentation processing. The Applications Manager will propose and develop new solutions to increase design efficiency and automate where possible.

The Applications Manager should expect high volumes for documentation and will need to exercise strong judgement on how to communicate and engage stakeholders through various tools.
