Amazon Web Services (AWS) Data Center Operations is looking for a Cluster Operations Leader to take charge of a growing region at a pivotal moment — one where new infrastructure is being stood up and a capable team needs a leader who can guide them through the next phase of expansion. As the Cluster Operations Leader, you will own operational performance across multiple data center facilities, covering safety, security, availability, capacity, cost, and employee development. You will lead a multi-disciplinary organization that spans data center operations, data center engineering operations, logistics, and decommissioning. This is a leader-of-leaders role: you will manage managers and technical subject matter experts, set strategic direction, and communicate effectively across a complex program that has become an AWS-wide standard. If you are energised by solving problems, coaching talented people, and delivering reliable infrastructure at scale, we want to hear from you. Key job responsibilities - Lead and develop a multi-disciplinary cluster operations management team across data center operations, engineering operations, logistics, and decommissioning functions, scaling the organization over the next three years. - Drive operational performance standards for safety, security, availability, capacity, and cost across all data center facilities in the cluster, proactively identifying and mitigating risks before they affect customers. - Partner closely with infrastructure delivery and region services teams to execute new data center launches and expansions, ensuring smooth handoffs and readiness for production workloads. - Own workforce planning and talent strategy for the cluster, navigating hiring constraints while building a pipeline of future leaders through coaching, development planning, and succession readiness. - Establish and continuously improve operational processes, incident response procedures, and automation practices to increase reliability and efficiency across the cluster. A day in the life You will split your time between strategic leadership activities and on-the-ground engagement in data center facilities. Mornings might start with operational reviews alongside your management team, triaging open issues and aligning priorities for the week. Later, you could be in a facility walking the floor with engineers, observing maintenance work, and coaching site leaders. You will regularly connect with infrastructure delivery and region services partners to coordinate upcoming launches, and you will carve out time to review workforce plans and interview candidates to stay ahead of growth targets.
