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 ensure 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.
AWS GCNA (Global Connectivity and Network Availability) is the backbone that connects the global
AWS network. It is dedicated to control the internet traffic that allows users to access their information and applications regardless of where they are in the world.
GCNA is also responsible for building and designing a complex backbone network that allows internet traffic to flow efficiently between Data Centers and customers.
If you like to work with new technologies and optimize existing technology, and have experience participating in network/systems support for a large-scale enterprise or a service provider, we encourage you to apply! Your work will play a key role in driving the stability and sustainability of next-generation IP networks.

A day in the life
Technical Infrastructure Program Managers in the Internet Edge organization have a wide range of responsibilities; We evolve routing policy, implement traffic engineering solutions, grow our peering footprint, secure the “front door” from bad actors on the Internet, and architect the hardware platforms
and network design to support any Amazon product that needs to reach end-users worldwide. Our technical infrastructure moves terabits of traffic to and from the internet at any given moment, and represents one of the largest edge surface areas in the world, requiring complex solutions to ensure that capacity always stays ahead of demand. To accomplish this, our Technical Infrastructure Program Managers work with a diverse range of partner teams to continually improve and automate our internet connectivity in areas such as capacity delivery, configuration deployment, impairment detection, and traffic optimization. Technical Infrastructure Program Managers for the internet edge make decisions on both a day-to-day and long-term strategic basis, which carry a large amount of responsibility and impact across all of Amazon's products.
