In the Mechatronics & Sustainable Packaging Customer Experience organization, we have the unique role and privilege to work backwards from our customer needs and represent their voice through the entire products’ lifecycle (from product development and deployment through to support & service), embodying Amazon’s leadership principle: Customer Obsession. We raise the bar on the readiness of new technologies in deployment and on the performance of those already in production; our mission is to transform “stand-alone work-cells” into “end-to-end integrated solutions” that are safe, easy-to-operate, easy-to-maintain, easy-to-deploy, and easy-to-service while implementing step change improvements in technology deployment rate. Are you enthusiastic about the latest advancements in Mechatronics and Sustainable Packaging (MSP) automation technology? Would you like to play a vital role in Amazon's dynamic growth? If you have a passion for making an impact on the future today, consider joining Mechatronics & Sustainable Packaging Customer Experience Org.

In the position of Sr Technical Infrastructure Program Manager, Deploy & Ramp Up, you will take a lead role in driving design and operational changes to improve Amazon’s ability to deploy future technology solutions at scale, safely, and with high quality. The team, comprised of Technical Infrastructure Program Managers (TIPMs), engages in product design reviews early in the product development life cycle to implement Continuous Improvement (CI) and Df(x) transformational initiatives, driving step change deployment efficiency improvements and enabling capacity to deploy at scale. These changes encompass design, physical installation and commissioning process, and testing and validation strategy changes to improve delivery performance of MSP’s existing and next generation product portfolio. In this role, the MSP CX D&R TIPM manages all aspects of project management including deliverables, budget adherence, scope management, resource constraints, vendor performance, technical challenges, and handles escalations from their team and partner teams. Managing multiple projects simultaneously, the TIPM ensures delivery at the right time to support operational needs and creates business case alignment to champion resources while constantly managing competing priorities. The MSP CX D&R TIPM is adept at developing new work processes for product deployment, including updating standard work processes and instructions, identifying opportunities for design consolidation or commissioning automation, and driving the implementation of metric systems to monitor and sustain deployment rate performance gains. Typically owning a large scale product or set of products, the TIPM sets standards and maintains quality within their scope of responsibility. The role requires comfort in handling highly technical work scopes related to automation installation, as well as addressing typical project management escalations that may arise during installations at construction sites or live operation warehouses.

The ideal candidate is proactive and takes independent initiative in technical program management. In parallel to the process improvement including detailing engineering design improvements to the hardware engineering and product teams to simplify the installation (safety, quality, and productivity), you may be responsible for supporting the site level product installations of MSP technologies. This role will require the ability to build relationships and capture and synthesize the voice of the customer. Come help us make history! This is a travel-based role and you will be expected to travel to meet the requirements of your projects across North America, upwards of 75% or more.

**Relocation to Amazon Corporate offices in Seattle, Boston, or Detroit is supported but not required

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
