Amazon Web Services’ Hardware Engineering team is looking for experienced professionals to help build the world’s premier cloud computing platform. We are looking for Manufacturing Test Engineers who are capable of operating in a fast paced, ever changing, multi-platform international manufacturing and production environment. Our Test Engineering team works closely with our ODMs, CMs, internal AWS hardware and software development teams, and with upstream component vendors to ensure right Test Flow, tools and test plans are established and validated for a product to launch and scale up across multiple sites world-wide. This role requires the engineer to be a technical contact and take on full ownership of the manufacturing launch and resolution of Test issues. You will be the driver in getting production scaled across a global network. You will own the Test performance as well as the processes that go with them. You will implement standardized test methods & troubleshooting guides world-wide across multiple ODMs and CMs ensuring consistent usage and processes across sites.

You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles.
