Job Description
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.
Data Center Services Procurement (DCSP) supports Data Center Capacity Delivery in obtaining the best services at the lowest costs, and manages the full "Supplier Lifecycle" including Strategic Sourcing and Intake, Onboarding, Solicitations, Spending and Transaction Policy (S&TP) Compliance, Contract management, Supplier Development, and portions of requisitioning and payment operations.
As a Procurement Ops Specialist, you will work closely with the procurement category managers across APAC, in creating and supporting Vendor qualifications, request for proposals, vendor performance dashboards for construction, professional services, engineering and related categories. You will also provide input on procurement processes and tools to help identify waste and enable innovation across teams. The ideal candidate must be collaborative. To be successful in this role, you must be highly analytical; think practically; have a sense of urgency to meet internal customer timelines; exhibit curiosity and learning drive, succeed in a fast-paced environment; engage key stakeholders where needed; and have a high level of focus. Also, you must have a demonstrated track record of managing multiple projects and driving them to completion to meet business objectives. It will be critical to embrace and model Amazon's Leadership Principles and have an entrepreneurial spirit.
Key job responsibilities
Responsibilities Include but are not limited to:
- Independently and cross-functionally deliver on projects/goals
- Manage assigned supplier onboarding and qualification processes
- Manage supplier contract generation and supporting the Procurement Category Manager with contract negotiation.
- Manage assigned tender events, supporting the Procurement Category Manager.
- Manage post contract metrics and audit process for work awarded
- Identify dashboard requirements for metrics reporting and identify opportunities for process improvement and develop training documentation

AWS values diverse experiences. Even if you do not meet all of the qualifications and skills listed in the job description, we encourage candidates to apply. If your career is just starting, hasn't followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don't let it stop you from applying.
Why AWS?
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world's most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating - that's why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses.
Inclusive Team Culture
AWS values curiosity and connection. Our employee-led and company-sponsored affinity groups promote inclusion and empower our people to take pride in what makes us unique. Our inclusion events foster stronger, more collaborative teams. Our continual innovation is fueled by the bold ideas, fresh perspectives, and passionate voices our teams bring to everything we do.

Work/Life Balance
We value work-life harmony. Achieving success at work should never come at the expense of sacrifices at home, which is why we strive for flexibility as part of our working culture. When we feel supported in the workplace and at home, there's nothing we can't achieve in the cloud.
Basic Qualifications
- 3+ years of procurement, purchasing, supply chain related work in a procurement organization experience
- 2+ years of program or project management experience
- Experience in managing assigned supplier onboarding and qualification processes
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience in MS Access and SQL
