System Integration & Manufacturing Engineer, Nitro

Description

AWS Utility Computing (UC) provides product innovations — from foundational services such as Amazon’s Simple Storage Service (S3) and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2), to consistently released new product innovations that continue to set AWS’s services and features apart in the industry. As a member of the UC organization, you’ll support the development and management of Compute, Database, Storage, Internet of Things (Iot), Platform, and Productivity Apps services in AWS. Within AWS UC, Amazon Dedicated Cloud (ADC) roles engage with AWS customers who require specialized security solutions for their cloud services.

Annapurna Labs, as part of AWS, is looking for System Integration and Manufacturing Engineer to join our Nitro Cards product team (https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/nitro/).

Our products incorporate the most advanced interfaces and technologies, such as PCIe, DDR, and Ethernet, and are widely used across Amazon Web Services (AWS) data centers as the backbone for Nitro and other services.

The Nitro cards are integrated into servers, and during the server manufacturing process, all Nitro interfaces are thoroughly tested before the server is approved for shipment to the data center. We manage multiple server types across various manufacturer sites, all controlled by a scalable infrastructure. The design and maintenance of this infrastructure are owned by the AWS team.

The Nitro product team closely monitors the manufacturing results of the Nitro cards integrated into the servers to ensure consistent quality and performance.
