Description

AWS Infrastructure Services owns the design, planning, delivery, and operation of the data centers that power AWS. As a Logistics Specialist on the Data Center Materials team in Kuala Lumpur, you'll help keep our data centers supplied with the hardware and materials they need to run reliably for our customers.

In this role, you'll manage the flow of materials across our KUL sites, including receiving, storing, tracking, and shipping servers, racks, cables, optics, and spare parts.
