Description

Join the AWS Energy team and help revolutionize the utility industry through advanced AI solutions that transform how utilities manage grid planning, operations, and interconnections during an era of unprecedented electricity demand and renewable energy transition. You'll work on breakthrough technology that dramatically reduces grid connection study timelines, enables utilities to process multiple interconnection requests simultaneously, and runs significantly more grid scenarios than traditional methods—directly addressing the industry's massive interconnection backlog representing hundreds of billions in delayed infrastructure investments. Our AI-driven workflows replace static, sequential engineering processes with dynamic, parallel processing capabilities that integrate with industry-standard tools, serving hundreds of transmission and distribution utilities globally as they meet growing electricity demands from data centers, electric vehicles, and renewable energy sources while improving grid reliability and accelerating revenue-producing projects.

- Build distributed storage, index, and query systems that are scalable, fault-tolerant, low cost, and easy to manage/use.

- Design and code the right solutions starting with broadly defined problems.

- Work in an agile environment to deliver high-quality software.
