Overview
Are you experienced in Critical Infrastructure Commissioning and looking for a fast paced environment to work in? As a Data Center Commissioning Engineer (CxE), you will be part of a highly creative, efficient team tasked with tackling fascinating and challenging problems building and supporting the operations of Amazon owned data centers. The Amazon Commissioning team (ACx) understands, evaluates, defines and manages the expectations of construction quality in accordance to engineering designs to meet customer requirements. The CxE is responsible for supporting vendors, contractors, and other teams involved in the construction and commissioning of various systems such as: Medium and low voltage power systems, Generators, UPS, HVAC (Air Handlers / Exhaust Fans / VFD), Chilled Water Systems, Building Management systems (BMS), Electrical Power Monitoring Systems (EPMS), Testing and balancing, Pumps and Hydronic systems. Amazon Web Services (AWS) Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. 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 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 deliver high standards for safety and security while providing capacity at the lowest possible cost. You’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion. Key job responsibilities
As the Commissioning Engineer (CxE), you will provide testing and validation oversight of AWS data center electrical and mechanical infrastructure. This includes, but is not limited to, review of design documents and equipment submittals, leading Factory Witness Testing (FWT), and managing third-party commissioning vendors in the performance of onsite pre-functional, functional, and integrated systems testing. You will own your projects’ successes, deep-dive to resolve technical issues, and maintain bias for action to address schedule impacts and coordination demands onsite. You will share lessons learned to drive team growth and program improvements. You will have the opportunity to provide multi-discipline input into scheduling, test script development, design, and planning of projects. During commissioning, you will continuously audit Cx vendors’ activities to ensure compliance with environmental, quality, and safety requirements. Following the AWS project reporting format, you will regularly report commissioning progress and metrics to your Regional Commissioning Manager. You may lead several projects simultaneously to achieve milestones and deliver data center capacity while managing the project budget as approved by Finance. A day in the life
On a typical project, the CxE works across AWS engineering, capacity delivery, operations, and contractor teams to coordinate site activities, prioritize tasks, and ensure each issue has a clear path to resolution. The CxE manages the project commissioning vendor whose primary scope is to execute functional tests, identify issues, determine criticality, propose solutions, and document findings. If project turnover is at risk, the CxE escalates to the appropriate stakeholders. Upon project completion, the CxE communicates lessons learned to help peers on similar projects and participates in initiatives that drive improvement to the commissioning program. About the team
