You’ll join a diverse team of technical infrastructure program managers, software engineers, data specialists, supply chain specialists, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for planning and execution 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.
AWS Infrastructure Services (AIS) designs, delivers, and operates the global data-center fleet that powers every AWS service. Our servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling assets in more than 245 countries and territories. We tackle some of the world’s most complex supply-chain problems so our customers can innovate without limits.
In this team you will own core functions that drive planning automation and optimization for the 0-2 year planning horizon for AWS's rapidly growing AI/ML server footprint. You will partner with cross functional teams to deeply understand requirements for servers (power, materials, manufacturing capacity, etc.) and build forward looking plans on what we can deliver and when. Due to the quickly evolving nature of this business, requirements and designs change quickly and often involve long lead time inputs. You will partner with our tech teams to build systems that automate and optimize our planning strategies to enable scaling. Success requires exceptional judgment, a builder’s mindset, and the ability to influence at all levels—from front-line planners to VP- and SVP-level business owners.
Key job responsibilities
- Own the global S&OP cycle – Drive an end-to-end, weekly/monthly/quarterly cadence that aligns AWS demand signals with supply, power, and capital plans.
- Deliver a trusted signal – Produce a single source of truth that reconciles financial plans, sales & growth outlooks, NPI roadmaps, transition ramps, and prior POR commitments.
- Run executive planning forums – Frame one-way vs. two-way-door decisions, articulate trade-offs, and secure leadership alignment across AIS, EC2, S3, EBS, Finance, and Energy.
- Architect planning systems – Guide software teams in automating demand-, supply-, and scenario-planning workflows (e.g., Connect, o9, Infor, Manhattan); own interim manual mechanisms until automation is in place.
- Build decision frameworks – Develop constrained-planning models that surface risks and levers under power, permitting, or component shortages.
- Measure what matters – Define KPIs and dashboards that quantify forecast accuracy, inventory turns, build-plan adherence, and capacity-delivery cycle time.
- Champion continuous improvement – Sponsor digital-transformation sprints that simplify processes, eliminate waste, and raise planning maturity across AIS.
