Job description

The Senior Constructability Engineer at Amazon will focus on enhancing data center infrastructure by identifying constructability and commissioning issues during the design phase. This role involves validating new construction methods and ensuring that innovative designs meet operational requirements. The engineer will collaborate with various teams to drive consistency and technical alignment across programs. The position is ideal for someone with a strong background in civil or structural engineering and a passion for hands-on construction delivery.

Requirements

  • 6+ years of industrial or commercial engineering experience in mission critical facilities such as data centers, power generation, or oil and gas facilities.
  • Knowledge of critical data center mechanical and electrical equipment.
  • Familiarity with building codes, regulations, and standards including IBC and ASCE.
  • Experience in data center design, construction, operations, or facility maintenance.
  • Professional Engineering or Architectural License.
  • Knowledge of tilt-up and precast concrete structures, structural steel systems, and seismic design.
  • Experience carrying design concepts through exploration, development, and into deployment.
  • Ability to read, interpret, and create construction drawings, specifications, and submittal documents.

Responsibilities

  • Embed into first-of-a-kind and new-product programs during design maturation to identify and resolve constructability and commissioning risks.
  • Conduct validation, vendor qualification, and deployment-readiness assessments to confirm new designs meet construction and operational requirements.
  • Develop and validate new construction means and methods, including prefabrication and modularization, and quantify their schedule, cost, quality, and carbon impact.
  • Convert field-proven innovations into fleet standards by supporting basis-of-design intake and specification updates.
  • Collaborate with product owners, construction management teams, and manufacturers on integration and buildability.

Benefits

  • Employees at Amazon are often offered comprehensive health benefits—including multiple medical plan options (no pre-existing condition exclusions, 100% covered in-network preventive care), dental and vision plans, a 24/7 medical advice line from day one, expert second-opinion services, and broad mental-health support with several free counseling sessions (including pediatric). Financial wellness typically includes a 401(k) with company match (up to 2%), Restricted Stock Units (equity), FSAs, an emergency savings program, product and partner discounts, and even college-savings and home-purchase programs. Overall, the package is designed to support employees and their families’ health, finances, and day-to-day life.
