Senior Technical Program Manager, Data Center Engineering

We are seeking a DC Design & Portfolio Manager to join our Data Center Design Engineering team.

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 will define the strategic framework for how designs move from ambiguous business requirements establishing the systems, mechanisms, and governance structures that ensure precision, accountability, and transparency at scale. You will own the end-to-end value proposition of delivery execution: developing comprehensive program plans, defining KPIs that measure success, conducting regular risk assessments across the program lifecycle, and building robust reporting mechanisms that translate complex technical schedules into clear executive narratives for senior leadership.

You will establish program constraints, challenge assumptions as new data arises, and evaluate the feasibility and impact of proposed technical solutions not as the engineer designing the solution, but as the leader who ensures informed decisions drive on-time outcomes. Every missed milestone is a signal to improve the system; you will develop and implement risk mitigation strategies, author documents that drive approvals at key decision points, and escalate critical risks to appropriate leadership when necessary.
