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 will lead cross-organizational business reviews with our vendor partners, lead the development and implementation of infrastructure risk reduction and mitigation projects. You will drive projects and initiatives that deliver better experiences for internal customers and our vendor partners, and scale how the team manages its responsibilities. In this role, you will also act as a subject matter expert on AWS's service relationships with these vendors and on their overall service performance.
