Data Center Project Manager II, Critical Projects Implementation

Overview

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. We’re the people who keep the cloud running, supporting all AWS data centers and the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to innovation. We work on challenging problems with thousands of variables in 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 teams across AWS to deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing scalable capacity at the lowest possible cost, within an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

The Critical Projects Implementation (CPI) team is a project management and execution team that manages construction activity within the operational data center spaces. The CPI team handles critical infrastructure improvement projects to optimize space, power, and cooling within operational data centers globally. These activities are outside the scope of standard construction delivery and regular preventative maintenance tasks.

This role requires independent contribution as well as the ability to work within multi-disciplinary teams.
