Senior S&OP Planner, AWS S&OP Team
About The Position
The Senior S&OP Planner leads the AIS Demand & S&OP team inside the CDSA (Capacity Delivery, Supportability & Analytics) organization. You will own the 0-2 year server-material Demand Plan of Record (POR) as well as transition plan for assigned server platforms. Your charter is to keep demand, supply, and financial plans in lock-step while building the automation and mechanisms that let AWS scale its GenAI and Core infrastructure faster, cheaper, and more sustainably. Success requires exceptional judgment, a builder’s mindset, and the ability to influence at all levels—from front-line planners to VP- and SVP-level business owners.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Math, Business, Supply Chain or other related quantitative discipline
- 6+ years of technical infrastructure management experience.
- Knowledge of SQL and advanced Excel (or similar).
- 6+ years of core project management disciplines including scope, schedule, budget, quality, along with risk and critical path management in supply-chain or cloud-infrastructure planning.
Nice To Haves
- Proven planning expertise in demand forecasting, supply optimization, and/or S&OP for high-growth, capital-intensive businesses.
- Manufacturing-planning pedigree (electronics, CPG, automotive, or similar) and/or top-tier consulting experience in supply-chain transformation.
- Hands-on success implementing enterprise planning suites (Connect, o9, Infor, Manhattan).
- Track record of measurable improvements in forecast accuracy, inventory turns, or capacity-delivery cycle time.
- Experience governing $100M+ capital budgets and navigating power/permitting constraints for data centers.
- Demonstrated ability to communicate complex ideas clearly to technical and non-technical executives.
Responsibilities
- Own the global S&OP cycle – Drive an end-to-end, monthly/quarterly cadence that aligns AWS demand signals with supply, power, and capital plans.
- Deliver a trusted demand signal – Produce a single source of truth that reconciles financial plans, sales & growth outlooks, NPI roadmaps, transition ramps, and prior POR commitments.
- Run executive planning forums – Frame one-way vs. two-way-door decisions, articulate trade-offs, and secure leadership alignment across AIS, EC2, S3, EBS, Finance, and Energy.
- Architect planning systems – Guide software teams in automating demand-, supply-, and scenario-planning workflows (e.g., Connect, o9, Infor, Manhattan); own interim manual mechanisms until automation is in place.
- Build decision frameworks – Develop constrained-planning models that surface risks and levers under power, permitting, or component shortages.
- Measure what matters – Define KPIs and dashboards that quantify forecast accuracy, inventory turns, build-plan adherence, and capacity-delivery cycle time.
- Champion continuous improvement – Sponsor digital-transformation sprints that simplify processes, eliminate waste, and raise planning maturity across AIS.
Benefits
- health insurance (medical, dental, vision, prescription, Basic Life & AD&D insurance and option for Supplemental life plans, EAP, Mental Health Support, Medical Advice Line, Flexible Spending Accounts, Adoption and Surrogacy Reimbursement coverage)
- 401(k) matching
- paid time off
- parental leave
- sign-on payments
- restricted stock units (RSUs)
