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.
Are you a passionate problem solver with a talent for unravelling intricate technical challenges? Do you flourish in an environment that demands innovation, resilience, and the ability to build and maintain robust services? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you within the Infrastructure Reliability Engineering Organisation (IREO) team.
You’ll have the privilege of being a valued member of an exceptional team, thriving in a dynamic and enthusiastic environment that combines dedication and enjoyment. A day in the life of a support engineer looks something like this:
• Dive deep to pinpoint the underlying causes of customer-related issues, providing valuable assistance in escalations when necessary.
• Apply Linux expertise to troubleshoot, innovate solutions, and resolve technical issues.
• Efficiently managing ticket queues for both our internal team and partner service teams ensuring service level agreements (SLAs) are met.
• Leading the team to enhance operational efficiency by analysing root causes, trends and developing metrics, procedures, tools and documentation.
• Engaging with internal service teams to contribute to company-wide initiatives, including tasks such as patching, operating system migrations, and code updates.
• Working with various internal software development teams to actively enhance systems and services within the team’s scope.
• Collaborating closely with experienced engineers and actively engaging in knowledge-sharing sessions with the team.
• Allocated personal development time for mastering new programming languages, honing software development skills, and crafting services to enrich your career growth.
At Amazon Web Services (AWS), you will get hands-on experience with tools and services that exist outside the scope of native AWS products. This presents an exciting opportunity to engage with systems you might not encounter otherwise, allowing you to gain invaluable experience in infrastructure development.
