Sr. Sustainability Scientist, AWS Sustainability

4 months ago


Seattle, United States Amazon Data Services, Inc. Full time
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.

Are you an experienced in sustainability science professional who is passionate about making a big impact? Are you interested in a high impact role at the world’s preeminent cloud computing company?

The AWS Sustainability Science team is hiring a Sr. Sustainability Scientist. This role will support our Climate Pledge goal of net zero carbon by 2040 by developing scalable methods and models to assess and improve the environmental impacts of AWS data centers and cloud computing services from manufacturing, transportation, use, and end-of-life. This work will drive a deeper understanding of AWS’s environmental impacts, and enable strategic management of our carbon emissions.

The ideal candidate will have industry experience in driving Life Cycle Assessments (LCAs) of products and services, possess a strong understanding of the GHG Protocol and carbon accounting practices, and have a detailed knowledge of manufacturing, design, development, and/or sourcing. The candidate should be comfortable working with imperfect data, identifying sources of uncertainty, and finding public data to fill the gaps where needed. The successful candidate must have strong analytical skills and the ability to apply systems thinking to complex, fast moving problems. The candidate should have familiarity with LCA methods and applications. The successful candidate will act as a subject matter expert, including designing research, gathering data, interpreting results, and developing metrics and reports. The candidate will coordinate with cross-functional project teams in gathering and analyzing large amounts of data.

Key job responsibilities
In this role you will be responsible for:
* Serving as an AWS subject matter expert in Sustainability
* Developing Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodologies to ensure AWS has an accurate and credible basis for sustainability efforts.
* Developing internal LCA models for AWS infrastructure and services including server hardware and mechanical and electrical systems
* Conducting LCAs including research, data collection, modeling, data analysis, data visualization, and reporting to quantify environmental impacts of our data centers and cloud computing services
* Developing reports, dashboards and metrics which distill complex data into actionable insights to inform improvements
* Building and developing relationships with internal and external stakeholders to drive programs to completion
* Work closely with software engineering teams to drive real-time model implementations and new features
* Having fun and working hard

A day in the life
Each day you will interact with different teams responsible for all aspects of hardware and data centers. Your work will span the life cycle of our operations and allow you to influence how we develop and implement sustainability practices. You will have the opportunity to work on projects locally and globally.

About the team
Why AWS
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating — 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.

Diverse Experiences
Amazon values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the preferred qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn’t followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don’t let it stop you from applying.

Work/Life Balance
We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why we strive for flexibility as part of our working culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there’s nothing we can’t achieve in the cloud.

Inclusive Team Culture
Here at AWS, it’s in our nature to learn and be curious. Our employee-led affinity groups foster a culture of inclusion that empower us to be proud of our differences. Ongoing events and learning experiences, including our Conversations on Race and Ethnicity (CORE) and AmazeCon (gender diversity) conferences, inspire us to never stop embracing our uniqueness.

Mentorship and Career Growth
We’re continuously raising our performance bar as we strive to become Earth’s Best Employer. That’s why you’ll find endless knowledge-sharing, mentorship and other career-advancing resources here to help you develop into a better-rounded professional.
