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.

And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides a highly reliable, scalable, and low-cost cloud platform that powers thousands of businesses in over 190 countries.

We are a team of highly-motivated, engaged, and responsive professionals who enable the core sustainable infrastructure of AWS. Come join our team and be a part of history as we deliver results for the largest cloud services company on Earth!

§ Produce written recommendations and insights regarding supply availability for key stakeholders resulting in demand shaping or transition decsions.

§ Handle multiple projects at once, deal with ambiguity and rapidly-changing priorities.

Our environment is fast-paced and requires someone who gets results and is comfortable working with tight deadlines and changing priorities.

Key job responsibilities
