You will work closely with both internal and outside partners including suppliers to drive key aspects of product specification risk identification plan and execution. You must be ownership minded independent action and results oriented to succeed in an open collaborative environment.
Our Reliability Engineers have experience in using Physics-of-Failure based approach to develop and implement both analytical and empirical approaches for product quality/reliability risk identification and assessment during product design manufacture as well as deployment stages. They drive AWS application-specific requirements in carrying out both lifecycle environmental and operational stress driven risk analysis including thermal electrical chemical and mechanical stresses so to identify over-stress and fatigue-related product weaknesses. Evaluate product design quality/reliability risks and assess electronics manufacture process related quality/reliability issues.
They drive critical component identification and the associated vendor selection and qualification requirements. Using their knowledge of process capability for electronic component production as well as system-level performance requirements to establish critical to quality and reliability metrics they develop datacenter system level reliability model and related reliability quantification and risk analysis for datacenter configuration optimization.
During sustaining stage you will be responsible for monitoring product performance in the field and will be responsible to drive root cause analysis of any critical failures and the associated corrective and preventive actions. You will drive effective vendor auditing and quarterly review process to drive the continuous improvements of datacenter availability.
As an SME in the reliability engineering field and product reliability leadership as well as business negotiations and program management you will conduct problem analysis and solve as well as communicate with vendors.
