Design Group Americas Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Do you have a passion for working in a role where your expertise in BIM, HVAC, plumbing design, and next-generation data center innovation converge into a single leadership opportunity. Have you ever envisioned shaping the future of BIM at a scale that spans the globe and redefines how data centers are designed and built. If these questions resonate with you, we invite you to explore this opportunity further.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is seeking a BIM Engineering Manager to lead the Americas Mechanical BIM design group, part of a global engineering team responsible for the design and continuous innovation of our rapidly expanding data center footprint

In this role, you will manage a team of BIM designers influencing all aspects of mechanical BIM design, coordination, and documentation - including HVAC, plumbing, and hydronic systems - across the Americas. You will work with internal and external teams to define, design, detail, and document the mechanical features our facilities require, coordinating system space requirements, supporting utilities, and equipment locations across all mechanical-related trades. You will review all models and drawings to ensure they meet applicable regional code requirements described in our design standards, and contribute your expertise to the continual improvement of our BIM quality and standard operating procedures.
As the team's subject matter expert, you will serve as the point of escalation for the team on technical BIM systems for mechanical, plumbing and fire protection

You will ensure that the team has the information and tools they need to design our data centers the way we expect them to, and that our operations teams are well equipped to operate and maintain them as needed to meet our goals. As part of this role, you will work with internal and external stakeholders - including design, construction, operations, vendors, and other service providers.
As part of the broader management team, you will work with organizational leadership to implement strategy by contributing to our Innovation and Strategic Roadmap, defining team goals, and executing the tactics that drive results. You will be responsible for staffing, schedule and budget management, model and drawing approvals, and developing repeatable BIM workflows

You will be part of a global team, and you will be an integral part of our work to change the world through technology - empowering your designers to do their best work and raising the bar on how we deliver mechanical BIM design at AWS.
