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 are designing and delivering software at Amazon scale to manage and upgrade the AWS network—a large part of what makes up the global internet. Our team is responsible for the end-to-end deployment of all changes to configurations, operating systems, and other artefacts that run the Amazon network, encompassing millions of network devices worldwide. We design, author, and vend the software infrastructure ourselves to safely, reliably, predictably, and quickly roll out changes to the fleet. Humans make mistakes, so despite the size and complexity of our problem space, we feel it’s important that our solutions be simple and use as little human interaction as possible. We are searching for software engineers who thrive writing distributed software systems that work at immense scale, who have a passion for elegant software written with the highest standards in mind, and who believe in a customer-driven approach to system.

We are a group of engineers that value diverse perspectives, collaborate freely, and believe we should help each other succeed (and fail) as a team. We love to learn and take ownership for our work, and we think you probably do too. As a member of our team, you will have opportunities to stretch your skills, whether that means resolving deep algorithmic knots in our backend services or designing a better user experience for our technical users. We are often the first team to do what we do: there’s no StackOverflow article for that!

We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating — that’s why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses.

Inclusive Team Culture
Here at AWS, it’s in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empower us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (diversity) conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness.

Work/Life Balance
We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why flexible work hours and arrangements are part of our culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there’s nothing we can’t achieve in the cloud.
