Elevate Power Infrastructure at the Forefront of Global Technology
We're seeking an innovative electrical design engineer to revolutionize critical infrastructure that powers global technological advancement. You'll be instrumental in designing electrical systems that support Amazon's mission of transforming how the world connects, computes, and innovates.
AIS
AWS Infrastructure Services (AIS) 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.
Key job responsibilities
- Design and manage high and medium voltage substation systems across multiple geographical regions
- Develop comprehensive electrical infrastructure designs using advanced engineering software
- Collaborate with regional vendors, manufacturers, and utility providers to specify optimal electrical equipment
- Create detailed construction documents and technical specifications that meet rigorous quality standards
- Support project lifecycle from site selection through commissioning and system validation.
A day in the life
Your day will be a dynamic blend of technical design, collaborative problem-solving, and strategic planning.
You'll transition seamlessly between conceptualizing electrical system designs, engaging with cross-functional teams, and developing innovative solutions that push the boundaries of data center engineering.
