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.

We seek an engineer with extensive data center experience for our Colocation Design Standards Team. In this global role, you will drive resilience, standards, consistency, and constant improvement in our global colocation fleet of data centers.

This role requires a candidate with strong data center technical knowledge and colocation experience. You will use your expertise to drive continuous improvement. If you have experience developing global design standards and working within a broad design and construction infrastructure environment, we’d love for you to apply.

As a Colo Design Standards Engineer, you will drive design and availability consistency across our colocation data centers. You will collaborate with Colo engineering leaders, Principal Engineers, Product teams and global partners to set and update colocation capacity standards. You will work directly with our APAC and EMEA colocation teams and partners to implement these standards.

Key job responsibilities

• Support the deployment of new AWS products in colocation data centers in a consistent way, including Machine Learning and AI.

• Input into global design standards and generational data center template designs.

• Support as required regional colo engineering teams to review and accept proposed changes to the site-specific infrastructure against our data center standards, and document Accepted Deviations when appropriate.

• Work with our global colocation partners to drive consistent standard solutions to expedite review processes and drive cost efficiency.

• Set up global strategies to deploy specific products or designs, and drive key global colocation initiatives.

• Documentation, release and management of design guides, standards, specifications and procedures.

About the team

The Colocation Design Standards (CoDeS) team drives the global standardization of technical solutions for AWS Colocation (colo) sites. The team owns the creation and update of engineering standards for colo sites, following the performance objectives set in AWS Basis of Design (BoD) and creating those for colocation specific technology. The team also provides technical support for AWS product colo readiness to enable efficient deployment. CoDeS global standardization of technical designs objectives is key to enable more efficient and consistent capacity ingestion for the delivery teams.
