Seeking a Leader to expand the AWS Region Reliability team in Denver!

We are looking for an Engineering and Operations Leader to help grow the Region Reliability organization. Region Reliability is the cornerstone of continuous engineering improvement by driving efficiencies across AWS through innovation, automation, and operational excellence.

This new organization was created to drive consistency in operational practices across AWS, reducing duplicative efforts and refining and accelerating operational excellence and best practices for AWS Amazon Dedicated Cloud Regions to provide a simpler experience for our customers and AWS Builders.

Do you like helping U.S. Intelligence Community and Defense agencies implement innovative cloud computing solutions and solve technical problems?

Would you like to do this using the latest cloud computing technologies? Are you the type of person that works with all teams to make operations a better place through simplification of process, creation of automation or building scrappy tools?

Would you like to drive the systems operations of the world’s largest scale cloud compute platform? Then this is the job for you.

Joining Region Reliability empowers you to drive operational improvements across AWS to delight customers.

Our services operate at large scale with workloads critical to national security. These mission-critical cloud computing solutions require a relentless focus on operational excellence.

Given the national security implications of our services, a deep passion for delivering reliable, secure, and high-performing infrastructure is essential.

You will share big ideas and execute to deliver the next big innovations at rapid pace. You are a believer in the Dev-Ops model of service engineering, and you are excited to run operations in an environment where developers don’t toss problems over the wall but solve them.

And you are happiest when you are working with empowered, world-class engineers to meet world-class challenges. Finally, with your strong ownership bias, you have an infectious desire to continually improve how things are done.

At Amazon, we hire hands-on managers at all levels. This leader must be able to dive deep into the details on business, operations, and engineering and identify how to deliver outcomes where the solution isn’t understood yet.

As a Region Reliability Engineering Manager, you will be be familiar with the technical implementation of creating, securing, deploying, maintaining, simplifying, and safely deprecating software through development and production environments.

With this perspective, you drive identification of operational excellence improvements and drive adoption across the organization.

You will excel at hiring and developing other Amazon Dedicated Cloud Engineers technical skill and review and improve their work.

You will grow leaders in your organization to identify manual actions and relentlessly drive improvements through elimination of process, creation of automation, or escalation through owning teams to drive a better experience for our Builders.

We need a technical, detail-oriented operations leader focused on operational excellence to drive best operational practices through the business.

You will excel at hiring and developing systems level engineers. You will grow leaders in your organization and lead a charter that grows as your organization grows.

This position requires that the candidate selected must currently possess and maintain an active TS / SCI security clearance.

The position further requires that, after start, the selected candidate obtain and maintain an active TS / SCI security clearance with polygraph or commensurate clearance for each government agency for which they perform AWS work.
