DESCRIPTION
At Amazon, we're working to be the most customer-centric company on earth. To get there, we need exceptionally talented, bright, and driven people. If you'd like to help us build the place to find and buy anything online, this is your chance to make history.
The Controls Deployment and Service team is looking for exceptional individuals to join our organization as a Controls Manager, responsible for the building management systems and electrical power monitoring system (BMS/EPMS) deployment and service within Amazon data centers.
