About The Position

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. Our team designs, builds and operates Amazon's fleet of Accelerated Servers using Internal Amazon design silicon or specialized purpose accelerators (EC2.TRN, INF, G, F + more instance types). We solve systemic hardware issues and we build hardware and software systems to detect and mitigate future recurrences so that our customers can experience the highest quality of service possible! You will be responsible for owning the design and operations of a brand new segment of servers for the AWS fleet. You will be responsible for development of individual boards, managing third party ODM's, integrating components from within and outside of amazon and integrating firmware/software stacks ontop of the hardware to produce high quality designs for our customers. As the end to end owner of a complex server fleet, our team works closely with partners to root cause failures and drive changes back into our current & future designs. Nothing is complete without closed loop corrective actions which drive changes back into our development processes and behavior specifications.
