Escalation Engineer

6 months ago


Dublin, Ireland Amazon Web Services EMEA SARL (Irish Branch) Full time
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.

The Escalation and Event Management (E2M) team is part of the broader AWS Support organization and is responsible for managing critical escalations, executing customer facing operational communications, handling large-scale customer impacting events and supporting the AWS Health service. E2M’s purpose is to drive operational excellence and improvements to the overall customer experience.

E2M is looking for people who are detailed, analytical thinkers as well as creative problem solvers, with a strong bias for action. You are someone who is not constrained by the notion of “how things are usually done”. You are equally comfortable operating in the minute detail, as well as with coordinating efforts at the forty thousand foot view. You confidently advocate for customers and 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.

Key job responsibilities
Every day will bring new and exciting opportunities that include elements of:

* Supporting external customers to successfully integrate with and consume operational information from the AWS Health service
* Work with AWS Health Engineering team to improve the customer experience for operational notifications that E2M sends on behalf of other AWS services
* Partner with AWS Service Teams to craft communications, help to identify and remove technical ambiguity
* Execute planned operational communications to customers in accordance with AWS communication tenets and style guides
* Provide clear, concise and timely communication on work items to relevant internal stakeholders
* Build a broad understanding of AWS services, service inter-dependencies and customer use cases to improve the customer experience and operational excellence
* Facilitating post mortems of operational failures, implementing corrective actions and identifying improvement opportunities for existing processes.
* Other duties as required by the organization

A day in the life
AWS Sales, Marketing, and Global Services (SMGS) is responsible for driving revenue, adoption, and growth from the largest and fastest growing small- and mid-market accounts to enterprise-level customers including public sector. The AWS Global Support team interacts with leading companies and believes that world-class support is critical to customer success. AWS Support also partners with a global list of customers that are building mission-critical applications on top of AWS services.

About the team
As members of E2M’s Health team, we work to keep customers informed when they are facing challenges using AWS’ products and services. We are responsible for executing planned operational communications through the AWS Health Service, enabling internal AWS Engineering Teams to interact with and support customer success using the AWS Health Service. We ensure customers are proactively informed of changes or impact to the AWS resources they use in their operation, ensuring communications are clear and beneficial. Because of our unique role as Escalation Engineers, we have limitless exposure to all things AWS, including numerous leading edge technologies.

Diverse Experiences
Amazon 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 in the cloud.

Inclusive Team Culture
Here at AWS, it’s in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empower us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness.
