Is there a remote option?
This opportunity with AWS would require you to be in / relocate to Dublin. However,
given the current COVID-19 Pandemic, we are aware of the difficulties around this. Please
know that AWS will be flexible and considerate regarding any relocation timeline and will
not endeavour to do so until it is safe for you. To help with relocation Amazon will provide
a relocation package, which includes a lump sum to cover transport of you /your
family/belongings, and rent deposit, as well as relocation assistance to help you and any
family who may come with you should you be successful. This may include temporary
accommodation if needed. *useful relocation links below
What is the interview process?
The interview process will be virtual in light of the current global health crisis, this will
include
1 hour Phone Interview
Final Virtual Interview via Amazon Chime comprising of both Technical and
Competency Interviews (here’s a great article about Interviewing at Amazon)
What is the Salary range?
For now, I cannot give a definitive figure on salary, as that is determined by your experience
and strength of interview if all goes well but I can tell you is the package includes a sign on
bonus, pension, health insurance but best of all (substantial) shares in Amazon. So you will
be well looked after if you decide to come on board.
What I am more than happy to do is confirm that we would be able to match your
expectations, if you are comfortable sharing this confidentially.

Due to the massive growing phase within AWS, it can take 1+ weeks for review. If our team

A note about COVID-19
Lastly, I would like to assure you that should you wish to interview with AWS, we will
approach this with as much flexibility as possible given the current global crisis. This may
mean you enter the process, and at some point no longer feel comfortable and wish to
postpone further steps. If this is the case, AWS will support you completely, and you would
be free to reach out to me again once you feel ready in order to pick off from where we left
off, so there will be no need to repeat steps! We understand the scale of this crisis, and you
have our full support. We anticipate prolonged notice periods / time to relocate, and will be
there to support you every step of the way to becoming an Amazonian!
