Sydney, Australia Amazon Full time

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.

The Data Center Global Services (DCGS) team is looking for a passionate, results-oriented, inventive Civil Engineer to drive design and construction in a client-side technical lead role for the delivery of our enterprise data center campus projects.

As a Civil Engineer, you will work directly with our Real Estate, Design and Construction teams within your assigned region. You will be the engineering representative on behalf of the Data Center Engineering Team responsible for the successful delivery of projects, which meet strict quality and performance levels.

Utilizing your Civil Engineer knowledge, you will assist in data center site selection, preparation of due diligence reports, undertake site planning and development and play a pivotal role in the delivery of data center environments regionally.

Successful candidate will be strong leader who can prioritize well, communicate clearly, and have a consistent track record of delivery. The DCGS business requires creative engineering balanced with high quality and customer focus. You must be able to work within a team and depend on others to accomplish the required tasks. This includes working with many of the internal groups within Amazon as well as external consultants and developers.

Key job responsibilities
As a Civil Designer, you will provide full life-cycle support to AWS Data Centers from site due diligence through to construction completion.

- This is a client-side role, and you will be working closely with the whole team to ensure quality engineering solutions are delivered within tight time frames.
- Collaborate with internal and external multidisciplinary teams to ensure designs are integrated and aligned with project goals.
- Lead early work civil design packages for mega-campus Data Centre projects across Asia Pacific. Work autonomously to review and analyze site due diligence documentation, and develop and implement the civil design strategy for new sites in the region.
- As a Civil Designer, you will utilize your solid knowledge and expertise in Civil 3D design software to prepare comprehensive 3D models and 2D drawings to develop land for our mega-campus Data Centers.
- You will analyze external consultant civil designs, reports, planning documents and provide comprehensive support to AWS Data Centers from site due diligence and design development to construction completion.
- Identify, develop, and implement automation to standardize civil design development and delivery processes across Asia Pacific, and contribute to innovative initiatives in AWS.
- Be familiar with Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) civil regulations and permitting processes.

A day in the life
Given Amazon's global presence, 25% travel is required. This includes international travel to inspect and audit current and future data center sites. Collaboration with international teams is essential, and you may need to travel for workshops to develop schematic and detailed design documentation packages.

About the team
Diverse Experiences
AWS values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn’t followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don’t let it stop you from applying.

Why AWS?
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating — that’s why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses.

Inclusive Team Culture
Here at AWS, it’s in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empower us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness.

Mentorship & Career Growth
We’re continuously raising our performance bar as we strive to become Earth’s Best Employer. That’s why you’ll find endless knowledge-sharing, mentorship and other career-advancing resources here to help you develop into a better-rounded professional.

Work/Life Balance
We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why flexible work hours and arrangements are part of our culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there’s nothing we can’t achieve in the cloud.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

- Bachelor's Degree in Civil Engineering, or equivalent experience
- 8+ years professional experience in land development, commercial, warehouse, and/or industrial site-civil design and remediation with working knowledge of civil engineering conventional practices.
- Solid knowledge and experience in civil design software such as Civil 3D or equivalent. Experience with DRAINS or MUSIC design packages will be considered a valuable bonus.
- Proficiency in earthworks, grading, paving, storm water, utility design, and landscaping.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

- Experience as a Civil Designer for 5+ years, focusing on subdivision and infrastructure projects.
- Excellent communication skills, motivated, dependable, and capable of working with limited oversight to meet tight deadlines.
- Ability and willingness to think outside of the box to find innovative solutions
