Amazon’s technology business has a history and tradition of leading the world in web related technologies and services. Amazon Web Services Private Limited (AWS South Africa) is seeking highly motivated Database Engineers who are passionate about technology, want to work with the fastest growing Cloud Platform in the world and deliver extraordinary customer experience.
With AWS you have the chance to help individuals and businesses take their computing infrastructures and applications into the Cloud. As a member of the AWS Support team, you will be at the forefront of Cloud technologies. You will be surrounded by people that are smart, passionate about cloud computing, and believe that world class support is critical to customer success.

Key job responsibilities:

• On a typical day, a Support Engineer will be primarily responsible for solving customer’s cases through a variety of customer contact channels which include telephone, email, and web/live chat. You will apply advanced troubleshooting techniques to provide tailored solutions for our customers and drive customer interactions by thoughtfully working with customers to dive deep into the root cause of an issue.
• Apart from working on a broad spectrum of technical issues, an AWS Support Engineer may also coach/mentor new hires, develop & present training, partner with development teams on complex issues or contact deflection initiatives, participate in new hiring, write tools/script to help the team, or work with leadership on process improvement and strategic initiatives to ensure better CX and compliance with global AWS standards, practices and policies.
