AAWS Infrastructure Services (AIS)

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.

Do you enjoy taking an idea and turning it into something? Do you ever find yourself marveling at buildings, infrastructure, or landmarks and ask "what does it take to build something like that?" This new role “Regional Safety Engineer – Critical Project Implementation” is for an experienced Health and Safety (H&S) Specialist, H&S Engineer, or H&S Manager who will support AWS Data Center Planning and Delivery (DCPD) programs. Internally, you will partner with DCPD teams such as Construction, Commissioning, Security, Date Center Operations and Procurement Teams to achieve health and safety goals and improve our safety culture. Externally, you will engage with General Contractors and AWS Suppliers to confirm/clarify the business expectations for H&S, and look for ways to continually improve H&S of our contracted services. You will work under the direction of the Global DCPD Field H&S Leader within the assigned region (Americas, Europe Middle East Africa, or Asia Pacific/Japan China).
