Job Type: Full Time
Job Location: England

Company Overview

Founded in 2006, Amazon Web Services (AWS) introduced key infrastructure services as web-based solutions—what is now widely known as cloud computing. The core advantage of AWS and cloud computing is the ability to transition from capital-intensive infrastructure investments to a flexible, pay-as-you-go model. Businesses no longer need to predict demand and pre-purchase IT resources weeks or months in advance. Instead, AWS enables them to scale dynamically, leveraging Amazon’s expertise and economies of scale to access on-demand resources, delivering results faster and more cost-effectively.

Today, AWS powers hundreds of thousands of businesses in 190 countries, offering a highly reliable, scalable, and cost-efficient cloud infrastructure. With data centers strategically located across the U.S., Europe, Singapore, and Japan, organizations across industries benefit from AWS’s secure, flexible, and elastic platform to drive innovation and growth.
