AI in this role
Wireless Network Development Engineer building self-healing automation and infrastructure for Amazon's global wireless network.
Your primary focus is building automation that makes our global wireless network self-sufficient and resilient. You'll analyze patterns across thousands of sites, develop workflows that resolve issues without human intervention, and validate new hardware before it reaches production environments.
You partner with firmware, field operations, and infrastructure engineers—pressure-testing designs and influencing decisions through data-driven insights. You'll mentor newer engineers, conduct technical reviews, and occasionally visit sites for hands-on validation and troubleshooting.
No two weeks look the same, but the constant is this: you're solving complex problems at unprecedented scale, and your work directly impacts the reliability of our fulfillment network worldwide.
Key job responsibilities
- Design and Deploy Network Solutions: Lead the design, development, and deployment of network access solutions spanning wireless (Wi-Fi 5/6/6E/7), wired (802.1X, NAC), and emerging network access technologies across Amazon's global fulfillment network.
- Own End-to-End Project Delivery: Take ownership of complex, multi-milestone network engineering projects from requirements gathering through deployment and validation, ensuring alignment with internal processes and stakeholder expectations.
- Build Automation and Tooling: Develop and enhance automation frameworks for network configuration, compliance validation, and zero-touch deployment pipelines that reduce manual effort and improve consistency.
- Enable Self-Healing Operations: Contribute to our automation platform by developing automated remediation workflows, anomaly detection models, and predictive maintenance capabilities for wireless infrastructure.
- Drive Cross-Team Collaboration: Partner with engineering, field operations, network operations, and program management teams to develop solutions that balance performance, cost, and operational simplicity while validating new device types and configurations.
