ABOUT US
Amazon has built a reputation for excellence with a mission to be the earth’s most customer-centric company, a company that customers from all over the globe will recognize, value, and trust for both our products and our service. Amazon Web Services (AWS) is carrying on that tradition while leading the world in cloud technologies.

E2M is looking for people who are detailed, analytical thinkers as well as creative problem solvers, with a strong bias for action.

You confidently advocate for customers, maintaining composure in dynamic and high pressure situations. You are comfortable working on highly technical initiatives to consistently improve the AWS customer experience. You are someone who excels at working in a dynamic environment while collaborating with some of the smartest people in the industry, and you get excited about owning critical infrastructure services that serve global customers, every second of the day Finally, you are passionate about technology with a desire to learn more and do more with AWS.

ABOUT THE ROLE
As members of the AWS Support E2M Event Management team, we work to identify widespread and systemic customer facing problems for Amazon Web Services. We are responsible for monitoring internal tools to identify customer impacting issues. When a problem is identified, we ensure the appropriate teams are engaged to drive the resolution of the problem and act as an advocate of the customer to both report on and manage the customer experience. Because of our unique role as Escalation Engineers, we have front-and-center limitless exposure to all things AWS, including numerous leading edge technologies.

Responsibilities include:

  1. Provide critical incident response/management (including leading calls with internal/external participants) for customer’s critical workloads and AWS Service Teams.
  2. Provide crisp and timely communication on developing issues to relevant internal and external customers.
  3. Drive down mean time to engagement and communication for all incident types.
  4. Facilitate Post-Mortem/Root Cause Analysis after each event to mitigate problem recurrence.
  5. Work with key stakeholders across AWS to improve the customer experience and develop mechanisms that support operational excellence.
  6. Analyze data trends on internal tickets, customer contacts, social media, and network monitors to identify potential issues.
  7. Build a broad understanding of AWS architecture and service inter-dependencies.
  8. Design, build, or collaborate on solutions using automation and self-repair rather than relying on human intervention.
  9. Other duties as required by the organization.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
- 2+ years of experience with Incident/Event Management for mission critical services.
- 1+ years of experience in Support Engineering, Network Engineering, Solutions Architecture, or similar IT role.
