As a member of the Global Controls Team, you will collaborate with highly motivated operators, engineers and technicians in the data center industry to maintain and optimize critical infrastructure systems. You will be responsible for troubleshooting and maintaining the Building Management System (BMS) and Electrical Power Monitoring System (EPMS) while developing new processes and standards that drive innovation in the controls space.
AWS data centers utilize sophisticated industrial control systems to automatically operate mechanical equipment, maintaining optimal temperature and pressure conditions throughout the facilities. These systems integrate and monitor multiple critical components, including generators, uninterruptible power sources, diesel generators, electrical switchgear, power distribution units, variable frequency drives, automatic and static transfer switches, air-cooled and water-cooled chillers, pumps, cooling towers, heat exchangers, Computer Room Air Handlers (CRAHs), and air economizers. Within this industrial control system infrastructure, the BMS serves as the primary control platform for all mechanical systems within the data center, while the EPMS functions as the primary monitoring platform for all electrical systems. This position offers the opportunity to work with technology in mission-critical environments while contributing to the reliability and efficiency of AWS's global infrastructure.
Key job responsibilities
- Primarily work in and support multiple data centers by deploying, servicing, and upgrading BMS and EPMS systems.
- Mentor and train Facilities team members on the operation and control of BMS and EPMS systems.
- Manage small to medium-sized projects and programs.
- Perform point-to-point checkouts between field devices and controllers.
- Perform first-line diagnostics, troubleshooting, and maintenance of programming code and hardware associated with BMS and EPMS in data centers.
- Execute provisioning processes for servers, controllers, industrial PCs, and network configurations, including communication testing between third-party devices and controllers or servers.
- Install, replace, configure, and calibrate sensors.
- Read and interpret electrical schematics and control panel drawings with a basic understanding of closed-loop controls, field sensor scaling, and functions typically performed by industrial controllers.
- Supervise low-voltage electrical contractors performing wiring and installation of field devices in compliance with AWS requirements.
- Provide commissioning and systems-level testing support.
- Create red-lined drawings and documentation of systems.
- Follow change management processes to generate work requests and methods of procedures.
- Participate in factory witness tests at vendor or panel builder facilities.
- Perform root cause analysis during testing and commissioning.
- Ensure personnel on site utilize proper safety methodology.
- Perform service activities including monitoring and reviewing ticketing systems, conducting root cause analysis, and prioritizing tasks.
- Actively manage service agreements including vendor labor scheduling, quality assurance, and financial invoice review.
- Participate in material handling tasks such as lifting, carrying, or moving up to 50 lbs of equipment, and utilize OSHA-standard safety equipment including limited weight-bearing work platforms, ladders, step stools, and personal protective equipment (PPE) such as safety harnesses.
- Perform other tasks as assigned by manager.
A day in the life
As a Data Center Controls Technician, your primary customers are Data Center Engineering Operations (DCEO), who rely on you to keep Building Management Systems (BMS) and Electrical Power Monitoring Systems (EPMS) healthy and operational.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Data Manager
Translate your Australian credentials for U.S. employers
A three-year Australian bachelor's degree is generally accepted as equivalent to a U.S. four-year degree for E-3 visa purposes. Get a credential evaluation before applying so employers don't stall on your qualifications during the offer stage.
Target employers with existing data infrastructure teams
Companies that already run data warehouses, BI platforms, or compliance reporting functions are far more likely to understand why your role requires a specialist degree, which is what the DOL's specialty occupation standard requires for LCA certification.
Use Migrate Mate to find sponsoring employers fast
Migrate Mate lets you search Data Manager roles filtered by E-3 visa sponsorship history, so you're not cold-applying to employers who've never navigated the process. That saves weeks of back-and-forth during your job search.
Clarify job duties before the LCA is filed
Your job title alone won't satisfy the specialty occupation test. Work with your employer to document that the role requires a degree in a specific field, not just any bachelor's degree, before the DOL LCA is submitted.
File your LCA early to protect your start date
DOL typically certifies LCAs within seven business days, but errors or missing prevailing wage data cause delays. Have your employer submit the LCA at least two weeks before your scheduled consulate appointment in Sydney, Melbourne, or Perth.
Hand off the filing process to a specialist service
Managing the LCA, DS-160, and consulate prep while negotiating a job offer is a lot to coordinate. Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service handles the entire process from offer acceptance through your consulate appointment, so nothing falls through the gaps.
E-3 Visa Data Manager: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Data Manager jobs with E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for this search. It filters Data Manager roles by employers with E-3 sponsorship history, so you're not spending time on companies that have never filed an LCA. Most general job boards don't surface sponsorship status at all, which makes targeted searching nearly impossible without a tool designed for it.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a Data Manager role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes, in most cases. The DOL requires that the role normally demands a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific field, such as information management, computer science, or data engineering. The critical detail is that the job description must specify a field, not just any degree. Roles framed as requiring general business or IT backgrounds can face LCA scrutiny, so the job posting language matters.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Data Manager roles in the U.S.?
The E-3 is available only to Australian citizens, but for those who qualify it's a significantly more practical path. There's no lottery, no annual cap, and you can apply at any consulate appointment you can book. The H-1B visa requires entering a random lottery in March with results in April, meaning you could wait a full year before getting a slot. For Data Managers with Australian citizenship, the E-3 removes the biggest variable in the process entirely.
Can I switch Data Manager employers after my E-3 is approved?
Yes, but you can't simply transfer the existing visa. Your new employer needs to file a fresh LCA with the DOL and certify the prevailing wage for your new role and location. You'll then need a new E-3 visa stamp, which typically means a return trip to an Australian consulate. Plan for at least a few weeks between offer acceptance and your new start date to allow for LCA certification and scheduling.
