Regional Data Center Operations Director

vor 4 Wochen


Frankfurt am Main, Hessen, Deutschland A100 ROW GmbH Vollzeit

The Regional Data Center Operations Director is accountable for overseeing one or more Amazon Datacenter Clusters and PoP-scale deployments within a designated region.

This role represents the highest level of Infrastructure Operations management in the region, bearing responsibility for critical aspects such as safety, security, availability, scalability, efficiency, and cost management.

The Regional Infrastructure Operations structure comprises three primary functions: compute operations, engineering operations, and logistics.

While a physical security organization does not report directly to the Regional Operations Leader, it plays a vital role in the overall operation.

Compute operations concentrate on the server-level platforms that support both Amazon Retail and Amazon Web Services. Engineering Operations is dedicated to the mechanical, electrical, and control systems that sustain our data center's critical environments. Logistics Operations is responsible for materials planning and control to facilitate ongoing operations and expansions. Security Operations are tasked with ensuring the physical security of our personnel, assets, and customer data.

The Regional Operations Director must possess the ability to build and lead high-performing teams across these functions, manage day-to-day operations, and have the technical acumen and curiosity to address challenges as they arise.

This position is crucial within the management team responsible for operating and scaling the world's largest cloud computing infrastructure. We face intriguing, challenging, and complex problems daily.

As a technical leader at Amazon, you will have the opportunity to innovate solutions to these challenges and drive operational excellence across all facets of your responsibilities.

You will be empowered to refine and develop processes that enhance operational excellence in every aspect of your role. A passion for technology and a commitment to achieving world-class operational performance are essential.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Recruiting, managing, and developing the operations team, including compute operations managers, engineering operations managers, logistics operations managers, and their respective teams.
  • Achieving organizational performance goals related to safety, security, availability, scalability, efficiency, and cost.
  • Planning and executing the Infrastructure Operations components for new datacenter and Colocation (Colo) expansions.
  • Managing the operation and maintenance of mechanical, electrical, and control systems for Amazon datacenters, including preventive maintenance, corrective maintenance, and change management.
  • Overseeing vendor management for Colo datacenter service providers to ensure performance SLAs are met or exceeded.
  • Responding to and managing safety, security, and availability incidents, including incident resolution.
  • Driving continuous improvement in operational processes, procedures, methods, and tools.

About the Team:

AWS Infrastructure Services is responsible for the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In essence, we are the team that ensures the cloud remains operational.

We support all AWS data centers and the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that guarantee our customers have uninterrupted access to the innovations they depend on.

We tackle the most complex challenges, with numerous variables affecting the supply chain — and we seek talented individuals who are eager to contribute.

You will join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other essential roles.

Collaboration across AWS is key to delivering the highest standards of safety and security while providing seemingly limitless capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. Our inclusive culture encourages bold ideas and empowers you to see them through to completion.

Diverse Experiences:

AWS values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all the qualifications and skills outlined in the job description, we encourage you to apply. If your career is just beginning, has not followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, do not let that deter you from applying.

Why AWS?

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the most comprehensive and widely adopted cloud platform globally. We pioneered cloud computing and have never ceased innovating — which is why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our extensive suite of products and services to power their businesses.

Inclusive Team Culture:

At AWS, we are naturally inclined to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups cultivate a culture of inclusion that allows us to take pride in our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences, inspire us to embrace our uniqueness continually.

Mentorship & Career Growth:

We are consistently raising our performance standards as we strive to become Earth's Best Employer. Therefore, you will find abundant knowledge-sharing, mentorship, and other career-advancing resources here to help you grow into a well-rounded professional.

Work/Life Balance:

We prioritize work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of personal sacrifices, which is why flexible work hours and arrangements are integral to our culture. When we feel supported both in the workplace and at home, there is nothing we cannot accomplish in the cloud.
