Senior Technical Program Manager (SW/FW) , AWS Hardware Engineering

Every server in an AWS data center runs firmware, and someone has to decide how a new version of it safely reaches millions of machines. That is this role: you will own how firmware ships across the AWS server fleet, and you will design the mechanisms that make it predictable and safe at that scale.

We build the software that lives closest to the hardware, including BMC, BIOS, and the controllers that manage power, cooling, sensors, and health on every server and rack we deploy. Writing that firmware is only half the problem. Getting a new version onto millions of machines, in the right order, at the right time, without disrupting a single customer, is the other half. That half is yours.

Your real product is the mechanisms. You will design the repeatable machinery that gets every release to the finish line without heroics: a release calendar the whole organization plans against, quality gates with clear criteria a build must clear before it goes anywhere near production, a staged rollout model that limits exposure if something goes wrong, and one shared view of where every release stands so nobody has to ask. You will define how teams hand off to each other, how a blocker gets escalated and by when, and how we know a rollout is actually healthy rather than just finished.

We are looking for an experienced Senior Technical Program Manager to own firmware release and deployment across our firmware teams. You will work across firmware engineering, hardware engineering, manufacturing partners, service teams, and security to make firmware delivery predictable, repeatable, and safe at fleet scale.
