Overview
Amazon is hiring a Data Center Engineering Operations Intern to provide technical support in maintaining critical facility infrastructure. You'll work with AWS technologies and assist in troubleshooting and maintenance tasks. This is an entry-level position based in Frankfurt.
Job Description
Who you are
You are a motivated individual eager to gain hands-on experience in data center operations. You have a strong interest in mechanical and electrical systems, and you're ready to learn about maintaining critical infrastructure in a fast-paced environment. You understand the importance of safety and operational performance, and you're excited to contribute to a team that supports AWS's rapid growth.
You possess a willingness to engage with technical challenges and are comfortable working with various equipment. You are detail-oriented and can assist in troubleshooting equipment failures, ensuring that operations run smoothly. You are also prepared to interact with third-party vendors and contractors, showcasing your ability to communicate effectively in a professional setting.
What you'll do
As a Data Center Engineering Operations Intern, you will work directly in an Amazon Data Center, where you will maintain mechanical and electrical equipment. You will assist in root cause analysis of equipment failures and help troubleshoot facility and rack-level events within internal service level agreements (SLAs). Daily operational readings of all mechanical and electrical equipment will be part of your responsibilities, ensuring that everything is functioning as expected.
You will utilize internal Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS) to manage building workflows, which will give you valuable experience in operational metrics reporting. Your role will also involve collaborating with third-party vendors and contractors who are working on-site, providing you with insights into vendor management and operational efficiency. This internship is an excellent opportunity to learn about the critical infrastructure that supports AWS and to develop skills that are essential for a career in engineering operations.
What we offer
At Amazon, you will be part of a culture that values employee ownership and accountability, leading to meaningful results. You will have the chance to work alongside exceptionally talented and driven individuals who are committed to building the future of technology. This internship will provide you with a unique opportunity to gain practical experience in a data center environment, preparing you for future roles in engineering and operations. You will also have access to resources and support that will help you grow and thrive in your career.
This role is set to start in May 2026, and you must have access to your own transport as there is no public transportation to our Data Centers at Zaragoza. We encourage you to apply even if your experience doesn't match every requirement, as we value diverse perspectives and backgrounds.
