Key job responsibilities
Diverse Experiences
AWS values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the preferred qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn’t followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don’t let it stop you from applying.
Why AWS
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating — that’s why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses.
Work/Life Balance
We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why we strive for flexibility as part of our working culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there’s nothing we can’t achieve.
Inclusive Team Culture
AWS values curiosity and connection. Our employee-led and company-sponsored affinity groups promote inclusion and empower our people to take pride in what makes us unique. Our inclusion events foster stronger, more collaborative teams. Our continual innovation is fueled by the bold ideas, fresh perspectives, and passionate voices our teams bring to everything we do.
Mentorship & Career Growth
We’re continuously raising our performance bar as we strive to become Earth’s Best Employer. That’s why you’ll find endless knowledge-sharing, mentorship and other career-advancing resources here to help you develop into a better-rounded professional.
A day in the life
You’ll typically spend your time resolving less time-sensitive issues for software systems in your team’s care, whilst always looking for ways to improve your team’s services, procedures, documentation, and tools. When standard operating procedures (SOPs) are not well defined or ambiguous, you’ll use your judgement when to escalate, and when to take your time to dive deep and learn. You’ll be the go-to-person for keeping your team’s systems running efficiently.
You will be required to occasionally participate in “on-call” rotations to resolve incidents occurring out-of-hours.
Eligibility requirement
Fluency in written and spoken English is required.
Candidate must be a national of an EU member state and residing in the EU to operate the AWS European Sovereign Cloud.
Amazon will provide relocation support for successful applicants relocating within the European Union.
Employees will participate in an On-Call rota.
