Description

Industrial Robotics Group is seeking exceptional talent to help develop the next generation of advanced robotics systems that will transform automation at Amazon's scale. We're building revolutionary robotic systems that combine cutting-edge AI, sophisticated control systems, and advanced mechanical design to create adaptable automation solutions capable of working safely alongside humans in dynamic environments. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of robotics and automation at an unprecedented scale, working with world-class teams pushing the boundaries of what's possible in robotic manipulation, locomotion, and human-robot interaction.

Amazon's Industrial Robotics Group is looking for a Senior Technical Infrastructure Program Manager to support the buildout, maintenance, and operations of our development facilities and manufacturing equipment integration into R&D facilities and the factory floor. This is a builder role for someone who thrives in the ambiguity of a zero-to-one development and manufacturing environment, sitting at the intersection of construction, manufacturing engineering, and R&D to help transform our facility into a dynamic instrument that accelerates engineering velocity while embodying Amazon's Leadership Principles.

Key job responsibilities
- Support end-to-end execution of facility retrofits, construction projects, and equipment installations, serving as a key interface between internal stakeholders, equipment vendors, and construction contractors
- Coordinate with the Tool Install team responsible for equipment layouts, installation, commissioning, maintenance, and operational support
- Contribute to the physical transformation of development and manufacturing sites, supporting facility layout optimization and construction approaches through first-principles thinking
- Partner with R&D and Manufacturing Engineers to define equipment layouts and utility requirements (power, air, process cooling) aligned with manufacturing and R&D roadmaps
- Support the deployment and operation of a rapid-response internal machine shop with CNC machining, fabrication, and prototyping capabilities
- Enable rapid development cycles through dynamic facility capabilities and efficient modifications, supporting product development timelines during critical phases
- Support facility operations and maintenance, including preventive maintenance programs, spare parts management, equipment reliability initiatives, and sustaining activities
- Coordinate with specialized trade contractors (electricians, pipefitters, riggers) and manufacturing equipment vendors
- Support capital budget (CapEx) tracking for facility upgrades and equipment installation, contributing to cost optimization and vendor performance efforts
- Uphold a safety-first culture, data-driven maintenance practices, and regulatory compliance across all operations
