What are the responsibilities and job description for the Product Lifecycle Electrical Engineer, Data Center Electrical Products and Services position at Amazon Web Services (AWS)?
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’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 seeking an electrical engineer to be part of a global engineering team responsible for ownership and continuous improvement related to electrical infrastructure products within our rapidly expanding data center footprint. This position can be based out of Herndon VA, Austin, TX or Columbus, OH.
We are looking for engineers with hands on design, manufacturing and installation experience of electrical products. If you have experience leading product design of electrical products, 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.
