AWS will make bank on the infrastructure for so much remote work.

  That's on the condition that they can keep up with demand or even keep their existing infrastructure running. If the electronics supply chain starts breaking down they can't just throw new hardware at an increasing workload. On top of that there's the fact that existing hardware like hard drives has a best-before date based on the cumulated read/write operations they can handle. I think there's going to be a big demand for engineers and developers that can squeeze out maximum performance out of existing pipes. Data compression is going to be big too, as well as smarter hw drivers for hard drives.
