Job Description

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of all AWS global infrastructure. In other words, we’re the people who keep the cloud running. We support all AWS data centers and all of the servers, storage, networking, power, and cooling equipment that ensure our customers have continual access to the innovation they rely on. We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.

You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

You will be a part of the team responsible for managing the world’s largest portfolio of corporate renewable contracts.

We are looking for an individual to execute our operational programs to monitor, report, analyze and improve performance of power settlements operations, globally. The right candidate has an analytical skill set, experience with power transactions and settlements in major regulate and non-regulated energy markets (US and abroad), and experience with reporting and BI tools.

Key job responsibilities
- Support financial controllership reporting for operational projects by compiling and analyzing performance, analyzing impacts to our business units and our customers
- Manage power settlements for a set of agreements, including validation of power invoices, reconciliations, issue resolution and overall transaction controllership
- Support end-of-month closing process in collaboration with partner teams and internal customers
- Work with tech/product teams to upscale power settlements automation capabilities
- Support the management of the contractual obligations with counterparties
- Plan and drive execution of initiatives to improve our energy operations. Continuously seek to invent and simplify in order to achieve further scale effect for Amazon’s management of its energy portfolio
- Support environmental attributes tracking, allocations and retirement across the portfolio
- Work collaboratively with other Amazon teams to support the management of the energy programs
