The Data Center Chief Engineer (CE) is responsible for ensuring that all electrical, mechanical, and fire/life safety equipment within the data center is operating at peak efficiency.
This involves both planned preventative maintenance of equipment, daily corrective work, and emergency response to emergent issues.
The CE serves as an expert technical resource reporting to a site's Data Center Facility Manager and interacting with onsite Engineering Operations Technicians (EOT) and any third party vendors.
They are expected to be a singular focal point for all facility operations within a given data center and to support Amazon within its owned and operated data centers.
Data center equipment that supports mission-critical servers must maintain better than 99.
999% uptime.
Also expected from the CE is the ability to management small-to-medium impacting projects from conception to completion.
These projects involve large amounts of independent work as well as collaboration with external support groups including engineering, automation, processing, and finance in both local and global settings.
The CE will be tasked with creating and delivering on key milestones, obtaining and tracking quotes for all necessary costs, and documenting project results for future implementation at other facilities.
The goals of such projects are for the CE to drive innovation and resiliency while reducing operational costs in the facilities.
