Amazon is hiring: PR Specialist, Chips, Amazon in Seattle

Amazon, Seattle, WA, United States


Amazon is inventing at the frontier of computing — designing custom chips that power cloud infrastructure and AI workloads at unprecedented scale. We’re seeking a communications professional to join our team and help tell that story.

For over a decade, Amazon has designed custom chips that have transformed cloud computing and artificial intelligence. What began with the 2015 acquisition of Annapurna Labs has grown into a $10+ billion business. Today, Graviton processors run applications for 90% of AWS’s largest customers and Trainium chips train frontier AI models including one of the world’s largest AI supercomputers.

As PR Specialist for Chips, you’ll support how customers, media, and the industry understand Amazon’s leadership in semiconductor design and advanced computing hardware. You’ll help translate chip architecture breakthroughs and large‑scale deployments into clear, credible stories, contributing to major product launches, customer wins, and technical announcements.

This is a unique opportunity to gain high‑visibility experience on one of Amazon’s most strategic communications programs — while building deep connections across the company’s global communications organization.
