Systems Dev Engineer, Global Data Center Ops Insight and Analytics Team, Global Data Center Ops

Position: Systems Dev Engineer, Amazon Global Data Center Ops Central Insight and Analytics Team, Amazon Global Data Center Ops
Description

We are looking for a System Development Engineer to design, build, and own the executive decision intelligence platform that serves senior leaders (VPs, Directors) across Amazon's global data center fleet. This is not an analytics dashboard - it's a system that synthesizes operational data into decisions that need to be made**, complete with context, projected outcomes, and recommended actions.

This is a systems engineering role. You will build the platform infrastructure - data pipelines, aggregation engines, decision-framing logic, APIs, visualization layers, and automated briefing systems - that turns raw operational data into structured executive decisions. Where analytical models exist, you will integrate and serve them; your primary focus is building reliable, scalable, well-architected production systems that deliver the right decisions to the right leaders at the right time.

Key job responsibilities

## Build & Own the Decision Intelligence Platform

Design and build the end-to-end platform

Own the system architecture that surfaces structured decisions to executives

Build metric decomposition pipelines

Implement trend computation, projected outcomes, scenario comparison, and threshold-based alerting at multiple aggregation levels

## Data Pipeline & Platform Infrastructure

Ingest and normalize data from multiple upstream operational systems

Build robust ETL pipelines with defined freshness SLAs, data quality checks, and observability

Implement caching, pre-computation, and materialized views for sub-second executive dashboard response times

## Integration & Serving

Integrate outputs from science teams into the platform as first-class data sources

Build the serving layer that presents analytical outputs alongside operational metrics in a unified executive experience

Implement automated narrative generation (template-based or LLM-assisted) that produces metric commentary for executive reviews

Design APIs that support both the web portal and automated report generation

## Web Application & Visualization

Build interactive executive dashboards with fleet-wide views, multi-level drill-down, and scenario comparison

Implement data visualizations optimized for non-technical senior leaders (clarity over complexity)

Design the portal to support multiple view modes: summary cards, trend charts, tabular comparisons, commentary threads

Basic Qualifications

- Experience in automating, deploying, and supporting large-scale infrastructure

- Experience programming with at least one modern language such as Python, Ruby, Golang, Java, C++, C#, Rust

- Experience with Linux/Unix
