Full Job 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 ensures 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.
Within AIS, the DC Robotics team is growing in maturity, so now is the time to join and drive game-changing and rapid innovation used by AWS globally. Our designs will fundamentally change the data center, providing operational and financial benefits that are critical to the success of the AWS business and its millions of customers. Our engineers solve challenging technology problems and take big bets on new concepts, enabling AWS services to continue to revolutionize the industry. This role provides the opportunity to be a technical lead driving the innovations being developed and deployed in the next generation data centers.
AWS is seeking a Robotics Software Engineer to build and maintain the software systems that power robots operating in our data centers. You will own the software that enables robots to reliably collect rich sensor data at scale, navigate complex environments, and communicate with cloud-based services. The ideal candidate has a proven track record of building production-quality, fault-tolerant software for physical systems - spanning sensor integration, distributed communication, edge-to-cloud data pipelines, and fleet-level orchestration. This role closely collaborates with mechanical engineers, ML engineers, and operations teams to ensure robot software is robust, testable, and deployable across a growing global fleet.
As Amazon has a global presence, intermittent travel will be necessary and should be expected to be approximately 30% to AWS offices, data centers, suppliers, vendors, and product validation tests. While most travel will be domestic, some international travel may be required.
