We are seeking a Systems Development Manager to lead and grow a team of System Development Engineers and Manufacturing Test Engineers who own the operational execution of the end‑to‑end manufacturing test ecosystem for AI server hardware — from early NPI builds through high‑volume production and sustaining — across server (L10) and rack‑level (L11/L12) integration. This is an opportunity to work with internal partner teams across Software and Hardware Engineering to shape manufacturing test strategy from the ground up, build a world‑class engineering team, and directly impact the speed and quality at which AI infrastructure reaches customers.

This role sits at the intersection of hardware, software, production operations, and people leadership. This role will support the development of the technical vision and also hire, mentor, and develop the engineers who bring it to life. You'll establish the team's roadmap, drive automation and self‑remedy capabilities across the production line, and relentlessly pursue uptime, yield, and operational excellence. You'll be a hands‑on leader who dives deep into the details on business, operations, and engineering while simultaneously growing the next generation of technical leaders on your team.

AWS Manufacturing & Repair is part of the broader AWS Infrastructure Services team, which owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. We are the teams 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.

Come join our team and be a part of history as we deliver results for the largest cloud services company on Earth!

This role directly supports physical manufacturing environments across multiple locations with travel expected up to 25% of the time.
