Job Description:
The Last Mile is where Amazon’s global fulfillment network meets
the customer’s doorstep. As part of this mission-critical team, you
will help redefine the speed and precision of our delivery
operations, building the technologies that move millions of
packages daily. We are looking for creative software engineers who
thrive on complex, high-stakes challenges and are ready to innovate
within our Last Mile Technology (LMT) and Station Tech
organizations. In this role, you won’t just write code; you will be
the architect of solutions that empower our "on-ground
rockstars"—the associates, managers, and drivers who navigate the
final stretch of the delivery journey. Your work will scale across
Amazon Logistics (AMZL) and Global Specialty Fulfillment (GSF),
focusing on reducing cognitive load and eliminating decision points
through automation. By building tools that prioritize high-impact
tasks and correct operational defects in real-time, you ensure we
consistently meet our customer SLAs despite the growing complexity
of our network. As a successful candidate, you will own the entire
software development lifecycle—from design and documentation to
deployment and operations. You will have the autonomy to build
optimized systems that drive site throughput and operational
quality on a global scale. If you are a self-driven engineer who
relishes the challenge of operating mission-critical systems in a
fast-paced, collaborative environment, come join us. It is still
Day 1 in Last Mile, and we are ready to work hard, have fun, and
make history. Key job responsibilities As a key member of our
engineering team, you will be a driving force behind our product
strategy, defining features that directly empower our frontline
"rockstars" and simplify complex global operations. You will refine
system architectures and spearhead engineering best practices,
building the reliable, high-performance distributed systems
necessary to sort millions of packages with precision across our
growing logistics network. Beyond technical execution, you will set
the "Day 1" foundation for the next generation of Last Mile
technology. We are looking for a customer-centric engineer who
pairs deep Computer Science fundamentals with a "hustle" mentality
to bridge the gap between business needs and mission-critical code.
Your goal is to build software that is both technically elite and
operationally flawless—ensuring we eliminate human error and
consistently deliver on our customer promises at a global scale. A
day in the life Every year, we set ambitious automation goals,
translated into quarterly plans and executed through methodical
sprints. We start each day with a standup to track progress, remove
blockers, and coordinate as a team. The rest of the day is reserved
for deep work: dedicated time for design, documentation, and
development. While you own your projects end-to-end, you’ll
regularly engage in design and code reviews to sharpen our
collective output. Every 4-5 weeks, you will lead the on-call
rotation to support production systems. Depending on the project
stage, you may also conduct onsite testing at our Last Mile
Stations, ensuring our customers are fully equipped to operate and
maintain the solutions we engineer. About the team The
Under-The-Roof Automation team within Last Mile envisions to create
a fast delivery station processes that support faster delivery
methods. In a world where anyone can deliver packages for Amazon
and delivery points can be in a variety of areas, technology that
is utilized needs to be tightly-embedded into the working
environment and processes. This yields a scenario in which it is
invisible, intuitive to interact with, and ensures processes are as
fail-proof as possible. The team continuously innovates for our
customers and invests in furthering our architectural foundation to
enable business growth, and strategic business initiatives for the
next-generation "Last Mile" hubs WW. We have embarked on a journey
to develop our next generation automation solutions for all Last
Mile solutions globally and are looking for rockstars to help us
through the same journey. - 3 years of non-internship professional
