DESCRIPTION

AWS operates one of the world’s largest and most highly available networks which continues to grow rapidly in both size and complexity in response to customer demand. Many AWS customers run mission critical workloads that depend on our networks to be always on. Network Availability Engineering (NAE) is responsible for preventing, predicting, detecting and remediating impairments across our network, both physical and logical, before they cause impact to our customers. We own the software systems that consume trillions of telemetry datapoints per day from the millions of network devices, use various big-data techniques including ML/AI to turn the telemetry into actionable notifications when things go bad, and package them into our event management system for automated mitigation and remediation. For the less than 2% of detected issues that we haven’t yet automated, we provide a suite of expert diagnostic tools that enable our human operators to quickly determine next steps. Our vision is that any failure in the network is pre-emptively remediated before it can cause customer impact by systems that require no human intervention. We are seeking a TPM to lead ambitious program in the space of network observability, with a key focus on program coordination between multiple teams, to deliver new products and improve existing ones .

As a Technical Program Manager you will own delivery of the programs outcomes. You will dive deep into all the dependent systems including those of our internal partners across multiple organizations throughout AWS and build a plan of coordinated changes. You will use your technical expertise and knowledge of public AWS services to help your partners identify and design technical solutions, use your experience of influencing to advocate for their prioritization and then own managing their delivery regardless of where those teams are located. You will create scalable mechanisms for high quality reporting of your program progress to senior leadership across AWS in addition to the necessary mechanisms to support and facilitate each partner achieving their goal in terms of improved speed of alarming and cost savings. The relationships you build with peers will help ensure the group is using the right AWS services and methodologies for the company’s scale, while recognising the unique requirements of networking problem space.
