The Reliability Maintenance Engineering (RME) team at Amazon is fundamental to our operations; they keep vital machinery running at all times. As an RME Technician, you’ll maintain a wide range of equipment and work spaces while upholding health and safety best practices. You’ll help keep your colleagues safe and prevent machine downtime, boosting the availability and quality of our equipment and enhancing the operational environment.

• Proactive and preventative maintenance tasks on a wide range of site equipment
• Carry out reactive repairs and fault diagnosis in a live distribution warehouse
• Use the latest tools to maximise equipment effectiveness
• Uphold all health and safety policies and practices
• Support the development and progression of on‑site apprentices
• Work on continuous improvement projects and roll out best practices across a range of EU sites

Our RME Technicians are based on‑site, so they can respond quickly to any machinery issues. You’ll carry out planned preventive maintenance on site equipment to ensure it works safely. You’ll also respond promptly to breakdowns, investigate, find and implement solutions as quickly as possible, and suggest long‑term improvements. Working alongside senior colleagues, you’ll undertake day‑to‑day maintenance tasks and liaise with contractors when external expertise is needed.

You’ll work a range of shifts to support our sites around the clock, allowing Amazon to deliver at the speed we’re known for.

Our Reliability Maintenance Engineering (RME) team keeps our equipment performing at its best. We're a technically minded team, made up of excellent team players and guided by experienced leaders. We work together to maintain, troubleshoot and repair equipment across our global network of fulfilment centres. We handle most aspects of Amazon’s technical side, including installing automated packaging systems, overseeing general maintenance, repairing key distribution equipment, keeping buildings legally compliant, and operating at maximum efficiency.

There are lots of opportunities for progression, both within the RME team and more widely across Amazon. Everything we do focuses on reducing downtime in Amazon’s crucial operations sites, so customers get their orders on time. We often work during early or late hours to carry out maintenance with minimal disruption, including night shifts. We constantly seek better ways to work, developing and introducing new processes or cutting‑edge tech like Amazon Robotics and our Complex Item Sorter.
