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.

The Amazon Interactive Video Service (IVS) is building the future of live video
for AWS. The IVS Data Infrastructure team is the backbone of that future,
empowering internal teams and IVS customers with the data they need to make key
operational and business decisions.

warehousing IVS data. We support streaming and batch pipelines to facilitate
analytics, reporting, and ML workloads. We offer analytics tools and data
products designed to make it easy for our customers to extract the insights they
need from their data.
