AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. 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.
The Global Engineering Strategy team (GES) is looking for a results-oriented, inventive senior data center engineer to drive front-end engineering and design strategy for new owned and leased site developments.
Key responsibilities include:
Lead engineering due diligence efforts for new and expanding regions, site master planning, and overall site design strategy, while maintaining the highest performance standards and utilizing innovation to reduce budgets and increase efficiency.
Work within the Design Engineering team of the broader Data Center Engineering (DCE) organization, collaborating with Real Estate, Risk, Power, Water, Fiber, Environmental, and Pre-Construction partner teams on global design strategy implementation.

Collaborate with internal stakeholders during the due diligence phase to oversee the process and ensure design requirements are considered.
Gather data to ensure prerequisites for the start of the design stage are met.
Lead the pre-design phase, manage internal partners and external vendor consultants, ensuring design-ready deliverables are completed and handed over for successful design execution.
Develop rollout strategy of new data center design types and intercepts 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 developing new data center infrastructure products, and design execution disciplines such as civil, mechanical, electrical, structural engineering and architecture to assess how design types, BOD, and products can be deployed for a site development project.
Work on concurrent projects in multiple geographical regions.
Escalate issues as required and communicate clearly and effectively at the appropriate level of detail with people from a wide range of technical abilities, backgrounds and levels of leadership.
Travel will occasionally be necessary but should not exceed 25%. International support will be part of the job.

Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or a related field.
Preferred Qualifications
Professional Engineering or Architectural License.
Knowledge of continuously operating redundant electrical systems, cooling systems, airflow 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.
