DESCRIPTION
AWS Infrastructure Services (AIS) 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 are looking to hire highly motivated, best-in-class Network Engineers to help design, deploy and automate one of the world’s largest networks. With Amazon Web Services, our goal is to become The Infrastructure Platform to the world and our customers demand the highest quality and reliability for their services. We are expanding at a tremendous rate and our goal is to design, deploy and automate network delivery while maintaining the highest reliability for our customers. Our teams scale the existing network, design new topologies, deploy these topologies and also automate activities where possible.
The successful candidate is highly autonomous, possesses strong written and verbal communication skills, has a track record of successfully delivering complex projects with ambitious timelines, and possesses a strong background in networking technologies. The desire and ability to work in a fast-paced collaborative environment is essential.
Key job responsibilities
• As a Network Development Engineer working within AWS Infrastructure, you will be responsible for designing, operating and deploying network infrastructure across all of our network fabrics.
• Operate and troubleshoot network routing, interconnectivity, platforms, performance, and configurations issues; including necessary low level application interaction, Unix systems, and new age networking software tools.
• Deliver simple, sustainable, and repeatable solutions and processes.
• Lead network projects in the areas of network engineering, network deployment/implementation, network scaling, technology refresh, best practices application, and/or network optimization.
• Partner with our broader Network/Infrastructure organization in the areas of network engineering, configurations standards, and tools.
• Work closely with our automation teams in defining the tools that allow us to scale at higher volume.
• Work closely with our Network/Systems/Software Engineering teams to ensure fast, smooth roll-out of new designs and products, as well as assist with deployment and sustaining of networking software tools.
