Why choose AWS?
Builders from across the company reveal why our innovative work, inclusive culture, and collaborative team makes AWS the ideal choice for taking your career to the next level.
Our workdays are just different here
We’re a global team of diverse builders committed to bringing our best selves to work in order to make a positive impact for our customers. At AWS, everyone is invited to combine their passion and imagination with cutting-edge technology to further develop for the world’s most comprehensive cloud offering.
Ownership & Autonomy
From Day One, you’ll be in the driver’s seat when it comes to your development, your career, and your future here at AWS. You’ll be encouraged to explore new possibilities, take risks, and make your mark. But don’t worry—whatever you decide to do and however far you stretch, we’ll be behind you every step of the way.
Customer Obsession
Customer first, customer focused, customer centric. Whatever you want to call it, starting with our customers and working backwards is one of our leading principles at AWS. We collaborate closely and listen carefully to earn the trust of our customers. It’s this level of obsession, if you will, that goes into every product, solution, and idea we build here.
An “Experiment & Fail” Culture
We know that to be truly entrepreneurial, failure and innovation are inseparable. To invent you have to experiment. Sometimes those experiments go awry; other times they lead to real breakthroughs. So, we’ve created a culture that doesn’t just accept failure—we encourage it. Because we know that’s where the best ideas bubble up from.
Inclusion, Diversity & Equity
Change doesn’t just happen – we have to make it happen. At AWS, we’re changing the conversation around diversity in tech by empowering every builder to get involved and collaborate on creative ways to strengthen our culture and inclusivity.
