Description

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.

You are able to read and understand complex application code and make approved code fixes to resolve support issues. You provide mentoring, training, documentation, and tools to other Support Engineers to enable them to perform support activities. You regularly contribute to the creation and improvement of all support documentation. You may perform code builds and deployments communicating status regularly before, during, and after each deployment. You create and interpret metrics that measure support success and service performance. You help develop and refine operational policies and procedures used by your team and internal customers. You work on support projects that are large in scope and lead other Support Engineers on smaller projects. You participate fully and constructively in the planning of your team’s work. You have the ability to write simple and efficient tools to improve operational efficiency. You contribute to design and development of support tools using software engineering best practices.
