    Job Description

    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 building systems from the ground up? Are you passionate about setting standards for an AWS product in its early stages of development, as well as influence its architecture and product ideation? Do you like working with latest native AWS technologies and developing systems that can grow to the AWS scale? As part of AWS Supply Chain Management Team, you"ll be a key part of developing next-generation supply chain solutions, and you"ll have the chance to design and create enterprise-class products from scratch.

    You"ll architect, design, and implement federated and highly scalable distributed systems with high availability, low latency, and high throughput. You"ll get the chance to use AWS" latest technologies to build and deploy enterprise-class products.

    We are looking for creative and motivated software developers that want to work on challenging and high-impact problems. To be successful in this role, you must have a thorough understanding of algorithms and data structures, as well as the ability to produce bulletproof code. You must be passionate about delivering high-quality designs, inventive in problem-solving, and unafraid to think outside the box.

    Key job responsibilities

    • Design and deliver enhancements to existing features as well as entirely new features independently, producing workable technical solutions that earn positive feedback in design and code reviews.
    • Apply domain knowledge of RP2"s systems and concepts to clearly communicate requirements, system constraints, and proposals with stakeholders across teams.
    • Operate effectively in a high-ambiguity domain where requirements often arrive underspecified, translating vague business problems into concrete technical designs.
    • Lead projects independently - collaborating with SDEs within the team and across teams, defining the project plan, and assisting with task estimation and execution.
    • Mentor teammates both implicitly, through code and design reviews, and explicitly, by providing guidance to more junior engineers.
    • Proactively identify, improve, and streamline the team"s engineering processes.

    About the team

    The Replenishment Planning (RP) team owns the end-to-end experience and systems for optimal replenishment of material resources to meet the compute and storage demand of AWS Services. Replenishment for AWS Infrastructure includes optimizing inventory levels - accounting for demand distributions and supply volatility - placing inventory across the supply chain for millions of materials across thousands of nodes, and procuring materials in line with business preferences and vendor targets, all optimized for cost and availability. Delays in replenishing supply resources lead to shortages that adversely affect the fulfillment of AWS Service demand and the availability of AWS Services.

    About Company

    At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

    Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles
    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
