Our overall mission is simple: we want Amazon to be the place where our customers can find, discover, and buy anything online. Whatever our customers want, we will find the means to deliver it. With your help, Amazon will continue to enable people to discover new worlds and implement innovation.

This is your chance to make history.

The Amazon IT teams keep our business running smoothly by resolving complex hardware, software, server, and infrastructure issues with both on-site and on-call capacity for our operations network.

As an IT Support Engineer, you will report to the IT Manager at your home site and will be responsible for working closely with the business, your colleagues, and remote support teams to implement and maintain critical infrastructure elements, as well as some day to day support to meet our operations present and future business needs.

Besides your day-to-day activities, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to get involved in projects and innovate. You will be a key part of a multinational team, thrive on delivering high-quality results, and always be on the lookout for improvements.

Operations Fulfillment Center and Logistics

Operations is at the heart of the Amazon customer experience. Each action we undertake is done on behalf of our customers, as meeting their expectations makes us feel good.

The Operations teams in our fulfillment Centers are responsible for controlling the vast range of fast-paced inventory from inbound to outbound and work very hard to ensure that our customers receive what they want, when they want it. OpsTech IT is at the heart of this process and plays a vital role in the business's ability to meet customer promises.
