Amazon Data Services Canada, Inc. has an immediate opening for a Technical Program Manager (TPM) supporting capacity delivery infrastructure expansion in Canada. AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure and data centers. In other words, we're the people who keep the cloud running by providing servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the infrastructure supply chain — and we're looking for talented people who want to help.
You'll join a diverse regional team of 15-20 other TPMs, mostly located in the Pacific Northwest, working in various sized regions across the Americas, within a broader organization including software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You'll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion. You'll operate with a high degree of autonomy while sharing lessons learned and driving consistency across the region.
The TPM will serve as the single-threaded owner for capacity delivery in assigned data center clusters, coordinating cross-functional teams from inception through deployment. Schedule and stakeholder management will include disparate teams including planning, design, finance, real estate, energy, construction, commissioning, controls, and others. The primary objective of this role is to work across the organization to ensure capacity delivery meets or exceeds business needs, while communicating and mitigating risks.
The ideal candidate will be an exceptionally strong communicator, both written and verbally, and possess 3+ years of experience in tactical project management of highly technical initiatives, as well as strategic program management. Experience in managing data center infrastructure deployments is a plus. A Bachelor's Degree or additional technical experience is required. Candidates possessing a background in architecture/design, mechanical/electrical engineering, software/hardware engineering, data center infrastructure/operations, and/or construction, who have transitioned to a program management discipline will have a distinct advantage.
Candidate must be comfortable managing remote project delivery teams, and possess the ability to facilitate technical whiteboard sessions to troubleshoot project implementation issues, and remove barriers to project success. Being able to stand up cross-functional teams, establish trust with a variety of stakeholders across multiple time zones, manage capital budgets, eliminate non-value-add activity, design solutions, remove blockers, and find creative ways to accelerate project delivery is a must.
The TPM will be fully competent in a variety of project management tools, methodologies and techniques for all phases of the project lifecycle and exhibit demonstrated proficiency in core project management disciplines including scope, schedule, budget, resources, quality and risk management, reporting and metric development/tracking. Other requirements include proficiency with MS Office, MS Project and MS SharePoint. Experience with Tableau, Smartsheets, SQL and systems integration a plus. This position requires 25% Travel (Domestic and International trips to AWS Data Center Clusters).
If you meet these qualifications, exude passion, and enjoy the challenges of deploying highly technical and innovative projects at massive scale, this job is for you!
