Senior Hardware Dev Engineer, HW Engineering Services - Specialized Products
Do you enjoy designing scalable complex computing systems & solving difficult problems while driving influential change to a hyperscale environment? Are you curious about the systems used to run the largest cloud computing infrastructures in the world? Do you thrive in a fast paced and ever-changing environment?
Our team designs, builds and operates Amazon's fleet of complex computing systems supporting mission critical enterprise workloads and cryptographic services. We solve systemic hardware issues and we build hardware and software systems to detect and mitigate future recurrences so that our our customers can experience the highest quality of service possible!
You will be responsible for owning the design and operations of a new segment of servers for the AWS fleet. As end to end owners of the complex server fleet, our team works closely with partners to root cause failures and drive changes back into our current & future designs. Nothing is complete without closed loop corrective actions which drive changes back into our development processes and behavior specifications.
As a member of the AWS Hardware Engineering Services organization, you will apply your technical experience and work with other subject matter experts in core component development, compute server development, networking development, custom hypervisor/virtualization development and other teams. You will be responsible for hardware and systems that improve how we detect, root cause, and remediate issues. You will lead cross functional investigations and define changes needed to deliver results and will have direct exposure to internal and external AWS customers. Ideal candidates will have a background in server development, system design, root cause, scoping complex issues, qualification, problem solving and developing corrective actions.
Key job responsibilities
As a member of the Hardware Engineering Services team in this specific function, you will own and lead the design, development and root cause of a new segment of specialized servers.
You will work closely with our customers to understand their technical needs and business goals, leveraging your experience with server design and the knowledge of various teams to architect the solutions that we will deploy at scale.
To deliver your products you will work with an interdisciplinary team of component, firmware, test, qualification, and integration engineers, and lead our design and manufacturing partners to bring these servers to the data center. After launch you will oversee the fleet of servers you develop, monitoring their quality and how they are meeting the customer requirements.
A day in the life
Your day to day responsibilities will include interfacing with our internal and external customers to understand project requirements and facilitate system development ontop of your server design. You will be responsible for learning operational challenges to our existing fleet with the goal of improving the current customer experience as well as developing improved systems for future designs. You will work directly with vendors and ODM/JDM design teams to develop and manufacture your product at scale.
