cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage,

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

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.

team tasked with solving fascinating problems in constructing Amazon Data
Centers. Our data centers are industry-leading examples of energy-efficient,
