Water Projects Manager, AWS Water Team - Amazon Web Services

DESCRIPTION

---------------

Every data center we build needs water to run — and getting it there, and safely back out, is one of the most important challenges we solve. In this role, you'll deliver the water and wastewater infrastructure our data centers depend on, and you'll do it by finding win-win solutions that bring real benefit to the communities we're part of while balancing business and environmental needs.

This isn't a role where you sit behind a desk and wait for a connection. You'll be out in front, working shoulder-to-shoulder with local water and wastewater utilities and the communities they serve — long before a shovel hits the ground. You'll help utilities understand what we need and how we use water, so they can plan with confidence and speak to it openly with their own boards, councils, and neighbors.

You'll size up whether a utility is ready to serve, spot the financial and community considerations early, and help shape the strategy and agreements that turn a promising site into a workable one.

The best outcomes here are never one-sided. You'll look for win-win solutions that leave the communities we're part of better off — where the business gets the reliable, sustainable water it needs, the environment is protected, and the community genuinely

the role

What you'll do

• Deliver the water and wastewater infrastructure that brings water to — and safely away from — our data centers.
• Build early, genuine relationships with the water and wastewater utilities and communities we depend on, and become their go-to point of contact.
• Help utilities understand our water needs and usage so they can plan ahead and represent projects accurately in public forums.
• Find win-win solutions that bring benefit to the communities we're part of while balancing business and environmental needs — and bring the right people together to make them happen.
• Figure out whether a utility can actually serve a project, and surface the financial, regulatory, and community risks early.
• Do the homework on candidate sites — what water is available, where it can go, and what it'll take — so we choose the right places to build.
• Shape the water supply and discharge strategy that guides everything downstream.
• Negotiate the agreements that secure water service, and get creative when the standard playbook doesn't fit.
