As a DevOps Engineer Apprentice, you'll play a key role in connecting software development with IT operations - helping Amazon teams automate processes, improve reliability, and innovate at scale. You'll dive into cloud platforms, scripting, security, automation, and monitoring, all while working alongside experienced engineers who will help you grow your skills and confidence. You'll contribute to projects and workflows that keep Amazon's systems efficient, resilient, and secure, learning how to automate tasks, improve performance, and support software delivery pipelines used by teams across the business.

Mix of on-the-job training, online study, and mentoring. During your apprenticeship, you'll learn how to: support the design and maintenance of cloud infrastructure, build and improve CI/CD pipelines to support smooth software releases, write scripts in languages such as Python or Bash to automate routine tasks, monitor systems to detect issues early and improve performance, apply security best practice across infrastructure and deployments, work with developers, product teams, and IT specialists to solve technical challenges, use containerisation and orchestration tools (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes), and troubleshoot incidents and contribute to continuous improvement.

Career progression opportunities into DevOps Engineer or Automation Engineer roles. Access to mentoring from experienced engineers and opportunities to pursue higher-level qualifications or specialist technical certifications after completion.
