Amazon Web Service (AWS) is a comprehensive, evolving, and growing business unit within Amazon.com, which provides cloud services. Since early 2006, AWS has provided a highly reliable, scalable, low-cost infrastructure platform that powers hundreds of thousands of businesses in 190 countries around the world. If you are interested in a career working in a high growth, fast paced and Customer focused work environment then AWS may be the right fit for you.

• Develop and oversee the implementation of continual process improvement initiatives related to operational efficiency, team effectiveness and new value added activities.

• Closely collaborate with Amazon operations, legal, finance, treasury, tax, design engineering and risk management to help deliver highly successful projects.
