Full job description

DESCRIPTION

Are you interested in a hands-on role operating, maintaining and troubleshooting the critical electrical and mechanical equipment that powers our data centres? Join our AWS infrastructure services team as a Data Centre Engineering Operations (DCEO) Apprentice.

What is a Data Centre?
A data centre is a specialised facility filled with thousands of computers, servers, and networking equipment that store and process vast amounts of data. These power the services we all rely on - from streaming services to online shopping. Our DCEO team ensures the critical power, cooling, and infrastructure systems operate reliably 24/7.

About AWS
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world's most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and continue to innovate - that’s why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses. AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery and operations of all AWS global infrastructure - we're the people who keep the cloud running.

Key job responsibilities
  • Take part in the day-to-day operations of data centre electrical systems
  • Carry out routine maintenance checks on critical power equipment
  • Monitor and operate electrical distribution systems safely and efficiently
  • Support emergency response procedures when required
- Learn to operate and interpret Building - Management Systems (BMS) to monitor facility performance
  • Assist in conducting equipment testing and maintenance activities
  • Help maintain accurate and documentation of maintenance activities
  • Support the inspection and testing of emergency power systems
  • Develop an understanding of cooling systems and their link to power infrastructure
  • Apply problem-solving skills to troubleshoot electrical systems with support from experienced engineers

You’ll be working alongside experienced DCEO technicians and engineers, who will help you develop practical skills in:
  • Operating and maintaining UPS systems, generators, and switchgear
  • Following safety protocols and procedures
  • Using monitoring systems and tools
  • Understanding power distribution in a data centre environment
  • Responding to alarms and alerts
  • Basic fault finding and problem resolution
  • Recording and reporting maintenance activities

Throughout your apprenticeship, you'll learn how to analyse and fix power system issues, understand how different parts of the system work together, and apply important industry safety standards. You'll develop both technical and practical skills, learning to work independently and as part of a team. We are seeking individuals who possess a strong technical aptitude, excellent analytical skills, and a keen attention to detail. A proactive approach to problem-solving, effective communication abilities, and a commitment to continuous learning are essential.

Here at Amazon, it's in our nature to learn and be curious. Within this apprenticeship you’ll have the opportunity to learn by doing, putting newfound knowledge into practice every day.

You will gain a vast range of useful experiences and skills whilst working towards the Level 4 Apprenticeship Standard – Electrical Power Protection and Plant Commissioning Engineer. As a working student your focus is to complete your studies in your 20% off the job time by learning and developing your skills, knowledge and behaviours to work towards successful graduation. You will be set objectives and goals by your training provider and manager to support your studies.

You will build your skills over a 36-month period, starting in September. These skills will help you develop personally and professionally. Your apprenticeship will be made up of classroom/virtual based training to cover knowledge, on-the-job training at your Amazon base location, as well as mentoring from our experienced team members.

We value different perspectives and experiences, and we're dedicated to creating an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive.
