    About the Role

    We"re looking for a Network Development Engineer who can design, build, and operate network infrastructure across data center and engineering environments. You"ll own architectures that support production systems, integration environments, and engineering labs - delivering reliability and scalability while enabling teams to move fast.

    You"ll bring data center networking fundamentals - switching fabrics, routing, segmentation, automation - and apply them across environments with varying requirements, from production-grade availability to rapid reconfigurability for hardware integration and system validation.

    About You

    You deliver simple, sustainable, and repeatable solutions - whether refreshing aging infrastructure or standing up something new. You"re comfortable designing a scalable switching fabric and equally comfortable helping an engineer debug why their test hardware can"t reach a shared resource. You bring production-grade thinking to every environment you touch, and you understand that great infrastructure enables great engineering.

    Key job responsibilities

    • Design & deploy network architectures - switching fabrics, routing, segmentation, and connectivity across data center and infrastructure environments
    • Automate network provisioning, configuration management, and operational workflows; build tooling that enables infrastructure to scale at higher volume
    • Operate & sustain multi-tenant network environments including technology refresh, scaling, and optimization - delivering simple, sustainable, and repeatable solutions
    • Troubleshoot & resolve complex cross-domain network events spanning physical layer through application connectivity; diagnose root cause and mitigate impact
    • Collaborate with hardware, systems, and software engineering teams to define requirements and ensure smooth rollout of new designs and products
    • Lead projects in network deployment, sustaining engineering, and infrastructure scaling
    • Maintain standards for change management, documentation (SOPs, implementation guides, knowledge transfer), and configuration control; ensure compliance across the networking toolset

    About Company

    At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

    Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here

    Our Leadership Principles
    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
