We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.

You’ll join a diverse team of software, hardware, and network engineers, supply chain specialists, security experts, operations managers, and other vital roles. You’ll collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards for safety and security while providing seemingly infinite capacity at the lowest possible cost for our customers. And you’ll experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion.

  1) stay aligned with process changes and operational updates and
  2) coordinate the execution of onboarding activities.
• Define, organize, and manage the scheduling, logistics, and administration of locally and globally planned virtual and in-person instructor led orientation and onboarding activities across multiple cross‑functional teams including coordinating volunteer instructors’ schedules.
• Develop and monitor internal metrics, goals, and key performance indicators to drive continuous improvements to the development and implementation of the end-to-end orientation process.
• Have a basic understanding of Amazon’s PXT (human resources) systems and processes and lead basic PXT onboarding for New Hires.
• Manage frequent, localized communications touch points with new builders including a combination of emails, frequently asked questions, messaging channels, forums, office hours, tickets, or similar mechanisms.
• Facilitate employee account creation through collaboration with multiple essential required teams to ensure a seamless customer experience upon arrival. This includes acquiring access levels and ensuring delay‑free badge creation.
• Play a crucial role in new hire onboarding. This includes assisting new hires in setting up laptops, ensuring the installation of essential software, and providing hands‑on guidance for configuring communication tools. Additionally, you will deliver a comprehensive overview of the organization, facilitating a seamless transition for new hires into their daily operations.

We’re looking for a new employee who is enthusiastic, empathetic, curious, and able to work effectively with a diverse team of peers—someone who will help us amplify the positive and inclusive team culture we’ve been building.
