Full Job Description

Application deadline: Mar 29, 2026 Amazon has built one of the most sophisticated supply chains in the world. From the introduction of Amazon Prime to the deployment of advanced automation across our fulfillment network, Amazon continuously raises the bar for operational excellence and customer experience. The Sub Same Day (SSD) Field Engineering team is seeking an innovative and solutions-oriented Field Operations Engineer to support the deployment, optimization, and reliability of next-generation fulfillment technologies across the SSD network. This role sits at the intersection of engineering and operations, working directly in the field to ensure complex automation systems are designed, implemented, and executed to deliver safe, stable, and scalable operations. As a Field Operations Engineer, you will lead engineering initiatives supporting site launches, automation retrofits, and operational performance improvements across multiple fulfillment sites. You will partner with cross-functional teams including Operations, RME, Ops Engineering, and external vendors to diagnose complex system challenges, implement scalable solutions, and ensure successful delivery of automation programs in live operational environments. This role requires strong technical depth in material handling systems, automation integration, and operational engineering, combined with the ability to influence stakeholders and drive results in highly ambiguous and fast-paced environments. Successful candidates are self-starters who thrive in the field, take ownership of complex problems, and bring a data-driven approach to improving system performance, safety, and reliability. You will participate across the full lifecycle of engineering programs, including system implementation, validation, performance testing, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement of deployed technologies. The role requires high collaboration, strong analytical thinking, and the ability to translate engineering insights
