Amazon Data Center Technician Trainee, Data Center Operations in Zurich, Switzerland

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.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is growing rapidly, and we are looking for Trainee Data Center Technicians (DCT) to join our expanding team as part of our Work-Based Learning Program (WBLP).

Trainees will participate in our 12 week work and training program in our Zurich Data Centers.

As a DCT Trainee you will work as part of the Data Center Operations (DCO) Team whose primary responsibility is the maintenance and upkeep of the Data Center infrastructure. Our Data Centers are large-scale high-density centers where you will be working on changing the face of cloud technology.

Key job responsibilities

  • Ensure overall availability and reliability for our customers within our Data Centers

  • Install new rack equipment

  • Decommission existing racks

  • Repair and diagnose broken servers

  • Handle computer equipment and parts

  • Manage network gear during installation, decommissioning, and repair

In addition, all candidates should be willing to work both independently and with a team. Work prioritization, organizational skills, effective communication, and the ability to react quickly are critical to being successful.

A day in the life

As a Trainee Technician, you will work with experienced Data Center Technicians, following them during hardware and network troubleshooting. You will have the opportunity to provide our internal workforce with infrastructure related support, resolving tickets related to HW (Motherboard, RAM, CPU, GPU, etc) and networking tickets (Link Down, Optics Replacements, Switch Replacements, etc). At all times you will be working with experienced Data Technicians or on defined directed workflows.
