This role is part of the Design Engineering team within the Data Center Engineering organization at AWS.

The position emphasizes innovation, efficiency, and high performance standards in data center design.

  • Bachelor's degree in Engineering or a related field.
  • Professional Engineering or Architectural License.
  • Knowledge of continuously operating redundant electrical systems, cooling systems, air flow containment systems, and building management systems.
  • Experience carrying design concepts through exploration, development, and into deployment or mass production.
  • Experience reading, interpreting, and creating construction drawings, specifications, and submittal documents.

Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with internal stakeholders during the due diligence phase to oversee the process and ensure design requirements are considered.
  • Gather data with internal teams to ensure prerequisites for the start of the design stage are met.
  • Lead the predesign phase, managing internal partners and external vendor consultants to ensure design-ready deliverables are completed.
  • Develop rollout strategies for new data center design types that impact site master plans and design strategy.
  • Provide engineering design decisions to partner teams for strategic planning and region selection.
  • Collaborate with other DCE teams to assess how various design types and products can be deployed for site development projects.
  • Work on concurrent projects in multiple geographical regions.
  • Escalate issues as required and communicate effectively with diverse technical backgrounds.
