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 is seeking Mechanical Engineers to become part of a global engineering team, responsible for the implementation and technical evaluation of our designs and the continuous innovation of our rapidly expanding data center footprint.
Engineers at Amazon: Work to design resilient, cost effective mechanical systems

Are responsible for achieving a world-class uptime for our customers. They justify and communicate the technical decisions we make to Sr. Management and work hard to drive continuous advancements and improvements with our designs.

They drive change and define/design the systems our customers rely on.
They have hands on mechanical design and field experience and can design and operate mechanical (Cooling) systems, have an understanding of the critical equipment needs for a data center, and understand the constructability of varying designs.
At Amazon, teamwork is absolutely necessary for us to accomplish our goals. You must be able to work within a team and depend on others to accomplish the required work. As a mechanical engineer at Amazon, you will be working with other internal groups as well as external groups including utilities, manufacturers, vendors, and contractors.
As an Engineer in this role, you will work with the Principals and Senior Mechanical Engineers to drive the standardization of designs across the global region in production data centers and resolve open technical issues in the mechanical space

You will participate in the research and development of new technologies and designs applicable to our products or services. Relied on as a subject matter expert in the mechanical engineering field, you write technical documentation for such projects.
Your tasks include conceiving, initiating and leading projects with widespread impact on infrastructure design, innovation and implementation. You will achieve this by breaking down complex problems into straightforward and actionable solutions

This will be achieved by working with internal teams to understand user requirements and challenges as well as collaborating with teams or individuals from other disciplines, cultures and countries. You will escalate issues as required and communicate clearly and effectively at the appropriate level of detail with people from a wide range of technical abilities and backgrounds.
The role also requires in-depth knowledge of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling and analysis, to confirm the airflow both inside and outside of a data center.
Part of the role will also include the review and approval of critical equipment submittals including vendor Witness Tests, provide technical support on global Large Scale Events (LSE's), including participation on deep dives, investigations and recommendations on mitigation plans. You will also be expected to maintain and host technical mechanical forums to provide a collaborative environment for development of data center mechanical systems.
As well as provide support and mentorship for the whole of the DCE engineering community, all while having fun and offering creative, out of the box solutions.
