The AWS Data Center Global Services team is looking for an exceptional
individual to contribute to the Controls & Technology organization by joining
the Controls Design Engineering team (CDE). The CDE primary responsibility is to
track, document, communicate and enhance global data center design standards
with a focus on control, automation and electrical power monitoring systems.
At Amazon, we're working to be the most customer-centric company on earth. To
get there, we need talented, bright, and driven people. This is your chance to
make history by joining a company whose potential has no limits.
The ideal candidate will need a wide-ranging background in data center
environmental controls systems, IT infrastructure, networking, mechanical
facility operations, electrical power monitoring, project management and strong
leadership skills.
If you are passionate about the Customer Experience, think and act with a global
perspective and have the ability to contribute to sophisticated innovations in
the area of building controls and automation initiatives, this is the challenge
you are looking for!
Controls Design Engineering (CDE)
The CDE team provides Building Management System (BMS) and Electrical Power
Monitoring System (EPMS) design coordination globally.
The team’s goal is to deliver consistent standards for data center controls
systems, as well as overall mechanical and electrical design practices. Due to
the critical nature and complexity of designing, installing, and maintaining a
BMS/EPMS, the CDE team is the primary owner of the associated specification,
points list, Basis of Design and scope documents within a large infrastructure
engineering team.
The CDE team is a single point of contact for multiple internal and external
customers, uniting the efforts associated with:
- New construction builds
- Legacy site enhancement projects
- Data center service projects
In a continual effort to enhance the controls systems, the CDE team collaborates
through design review, drives consistent standards, and collects feedback data
to arrive at unified documented solutions. Due to the efforts of maintaining,
updating, and distributing BMS/EPMS standards, the CDE engineer will drive
significant reductions in change order expense, scope gaps between contractors,
construction schedule delays, single-sourced vendor pricing, and reduced vendor
project management and engineering labor costs.
