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.
Within Infrastructure Services and Data Center Engineering, the Electrical Products and Services team is developing resilient electrical distribution products and systems. Our designs are fundamentally changing the data center, providing operational and financial benefits that are critical to the success of the AWS business and its millions of customers. Our engineers solve challenging technology problems and take big bets on new concepts, enabling AWS services to continue to revolutionize the industry.
We're seeking a Senior Product Design Mechanical Engineer to own end to end product design and development of electrical power distribution equipment such as Low Voltage Switchgear and Power Distribution Cabinets. You will directly lead product design and development and be a part of the process from concept to implementation. You must be capable of defining equipment specifications and evaluating the merit of design changes. The ideal candidate brings experience working on end to end electro-mechanical product design and manufacturing.
This position requires approximately 30% travel to AWS offices, data centers, suppliers, vendors, and product validation sites. While most travel is domestic, some international travel may be required.
Open to hiring this position in Austin, Atlanta, Columbus, Northern Virginia or Seattle.
Key job responsibilities
- Work with internal partner teams to solicit customer input and define design requirements for product design.
- Lead new product design, development and qualification of critical electrical power distribution equipment for AWS data centers including LV and MV switchgear, power distribution cabinets and panels.
- Ensure compliance with UL, CSA, IEC and federal, state and municipal requirements and building codes across different countries through appropriate levels of testing.
- Validate design through prototype, pre-production and first-of-kind builds, conducting DFx and value engineering analysis through each step and updating design and documentation.
- Work with field engineering and commissioning teams to properly test and validate installation, operation, and performance of electrical products.
- Ability to provide support for manufacturing activities for the new products on concurrent projects in multiple geographical locations.
- Be a leader within the product development team as well as within internal and external teams that support the data center.

Senior Level Product Design Engineer Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a senior level product design engineer job?
Employers at this level look for engineers who can own a product program end to end, not just execute tasks. A portfolio that shows design decisions you drove, trade-offs you resolved, and outcomes you delivered carries more weight than a list of tools. Experience mentoring junior engineers and working across mechanical, electrical, or manufacturing teams signals readiness for senior scope.
Which companies hire senior level product design engineers?
Companies hiring senior level product design engineers right now include Molex, Amazon, and Apple, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Hiring at this level comes from a mix of consumer electronics firms, industrial manufacturers, medical device companies, and technology hardware organizations that need engineers who can lead complex product development cycles.
Are there remote senior level product design engineer jobs?
Yes, though remote availability varies by product type and prototyping requirements. About 37% of senior level product design engineer openings are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, with hybrid arrangements most common where hands-on access to labs, tooling, or manufacturing partners is part of the role.
What makes a product design engineer role senior level?
Senior level roles carry ownership over a full product or major subsystem, not just individual components. Expectations include setting technical direction, resolving ambiguous design problems independently, driving design reviews, and mentoring less experienced engineers. Senior engineers are accountable for outcomes across the entire development cycle, including manufacturability, cost targets, and cross-team alignment.
Which industries hire the most senior level product design engineers?
Senior Level product design engineer roles concentrate in Technology & Software, Manufacturing, and Electronics & Hardware, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. These sectors drive demand because they develop complex physical products at scale, where senior engineering judgment on materials, tolerances, and production constraints directly affects product viability and time to market.
