AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the 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 supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.

You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

Join a diverse, dynamic and enthusiastic team of environmental compliance professionals who play a leading role in environmental permitting and compliance at Amazon Web Services (AWS), where we have a history of leading the world in innovative technologies and services. The work of our Regional Environmental Engineers is critical to enabling AWS's growth in the US and around the world.

As a Senior Environmental Engineer (Sr. REE), you will be responsible for environmental compliance at AWS data centers in Virginia. You will develop standards, programs and policies to support regulatory compliance, complete environmental performance and gap analyses, prepare environmental compliance plans for new technologies and/or permits, establish and monitor metrics, and facilitate implementation of AWS environmental standards. You will provide guidance and build effective relationships with internal and external partners, including government entities, contractors, consultants, design, construction, operations and other key stakeholders. You will have an opportunity to lead and/or actively support large-scale compliance projects, including those spanning several regions.

*This role requires US Citizenship and will be based in Stafford, Virginia.

Key job responsibilities
- Manage and oversee compliance with environmental regulations and Amazon policy;
- Develop regional strategic programs by integrating with engineering, construction, and operations;
- Drive an environmentally responsible culture within the organization;
- Function as a leader regarding regulatory agency interactions, permit evaluation and processing, and new process and technology introduction;
- Ensure work performed by contractors, consultants, and employees is completed in accordance with Amazon standards;
- Develop environmental metrics to measure, monitor and forecast performance;
- Conduct thorough and accurate environmental audits for continuous improvement;
- Prioritize and manage multiple technically complex assignments concurrently;
- Represent Amazon at appropriate levels with governmental agencies and throughout the company;
