Full Job Description

The Senior Industrial Designer, Safety Design Engineering provides technical leadership in designing safe systems across Amazon's global operations network. This role ensures hazards are eliminated at the design stage and safety requirements are integrated into the architecture of buildings, equipment, automation, and Material Handling Equipment (MHE) from the earliest concept phases. You will define how safety is engineered into new technologies and facility designs, guide cross-functional partners through safety-critical design decisions, and represent Workplace Health and Safety (WHS) in capital programs and early design reviews. This position influences long-range planning, network design strategies, and vendor engagements, ensuring safety is established as an engineering requirement embedded in design standards, planning processes, and architectural decisions. The role operates at network scale, applying deep technical judgment to resolve complex design issues across organizations while setting expectations for how Amazon integrates Prevention-through-Design (PtD) principles into system architecture covering buildings, automation, MHE, and high-energy systems. Key job responsibilities Key Responsibilities Influence WHS design standards and safety-related elements of Amazon's system architecture, including PtD criteria, engineering calculations, simulation requirements, MHE envelopes, machine safety, ergonomics, noise-vibration-harshness (NVH), maintenance access, and high-hazard energy systems Apply first-principles engineering, analytical modeling, and quantitative risk methods to validate architectural assumptions and define safe system design envelopes for buildings, automation, MHE, and high-energy systems Develop mechanisms to decompose complex facility, automation, and MHE architectures into safety requirements and operationalized mechanisms ensuring consistent design quality across programs, regions, and business units Drive cross-disciplinary engineerin
