Description
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'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.
Do you dream of working in a role where your talent with Fire Protection and next-generation data centre design can be merged? Do you want to expand your current knowledge of building systems while providing input from your previous experience? Have you ever wondered what it is like to be able to influence construction on a global scale?
In this role you will influence all aspects of fire protection design, construction, operations, and maintenance for our global fleet of data centres. This includes fire suppression, fire detection, fire alarm, and mass notification systems, as well as fire‐resistant construction and life safety. You will work with internal and external teams to define, design, detail, and document the various fire protection features that our facilities require, using both prescriptive and performance‐based design approaches.
Primary responsibilities will be to perform and oversee project‐related work, such as water supply analysis and design for fire water service to buildings, including coordination with third‐party vendors to establish basic site infrastructure requirements. You will typically prepare prescriptive designs for building fire suppression, alarm, and detection systems, while preparing or approving performance‐based design elements as needed to support our goals. You will review all design disciplines to ensure they meet the minimum fire protection requirements described in our design standards. In some cases, you will oversee and review this work and in other cases you will perform the work yourself.
As part of this role you will work with internal and external stakeholders, including design engineering, construction, commissioning, operations, vendors, and other service providers. You will be part of a global team, operating within the APAC region, and you will be an integral part of our work to change the world through technology.
