You will play a critical role in developing mechanical, electrical, and control solutions—working both independently and in collaboration with third-party OEM partners. This role requires a balance of deep technical expertise, strong problem-solving skills, and the ability to translate business and operational needs into robust, scalable engineering solutions. You will work at the intersection of R&D, product development, and operations, challenging the status quo of traditional conveyance, sortation, and robotics solutions. ### Key job responsibilities - Design, develop, and validate hardware solutions for Amazon’s next-generation material handling systems. - Translate ambiguous business problems into clear technical requirements and engineering solutions. - Collaborate with cross-functional partners (operations, procurement, global engineering, and launch teams) to ensure successful product delivery. - Lead the design-for-manufacturing, assembly, installation, and maintenance processes to ensure long-term scalability. - Evaluate and integrate OEM hardware solutions; identify gaps and lead in-house design where required. - Build prototypes, conduct testing, and analyze results to validate performance, safety, and reliability. - Author technical specifications, design documents, and test plans. - Champion data-driven decision making, ensuring technical trade-offs are well-documented and communicated. - Manage risk through proactive identification and mitigation strategies. - Stay current with emerging technologies in automation, robotics, and industrial equipment. ### About the team Amazon installs a significant quantity of new buildings every year. The historical model has been to allow each integrator to use their own equipment, controls, subsystems, and methodologies. While that has allowed Amazon to be successful to this point, the variability between buildings has proven difficult to support and scale. One MHS’ charge is to build partnerships to focus on consistency and scalability across our network of the future. We will be partnering with key suppliers to help them scale up their manufacturing capabilities to keep up with our needs, as well as refining their designs to drive innovation and operational uptime and better meet the specific needs of Amazon’s operational environment. ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Jun 16, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 18, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 18, 2026 - Listed for: 124 days - Location: US, MA, Westborough[Apply on Amazon’s careers site →](https://www.amazon.jobs/en/jobs/10450539/product-development-engineer-automation-design-onemhs) ## More jobs at Amazon ### [Sr. Advanced Manufacturing Engineer, Advanced Manufacturing Engineering (AME)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/f6fa2a52fc01acd4b760/) US, MA, Westborough ### [Sr. New Product Lead, Tech, Robotics Supply Chain](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/c3687009a789206a09d3/) US, MA, Westborough ### [Sr. Robotics Mech Engineer, Velocity](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/7514f0dd47d994eea9c0/) US, MA, Westborough ### [AI & Creative Ops Lead, XCM Global Studio](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/578d207c0670545f15c1/) US, WA, Seattle ### [ASIC Design Engineer, Satellite Communication](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/09c8c54fbd6dc5368cc0/) US, CA, San Diego ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [New Product Development Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/eaton/jobs/c13e79de275730618a91/) Eaton · Jackson, Mississippi, USA ### [Senior Product Development Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/eaton/jobs/16f7ec1f720d4ad244cd/) Eaton · Raleigh, North Carolina, USA ### [Product Development Systems Engineer II](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/trane-technologies/jobs/539b3c709f5f40ac870d/) Trane Technologies · La Crosse, Wisconsin, United States of America ### [Senior Systems Engineer - Product Development](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/ge-healthcare-technologies/jobs/421e57f622e873f476ae/) GE HealthCare Technologies · Waukesha, Wisconsin, United States of America ### [VP, Medicine Development Leader - Specialty Product Development](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/gsk/jobs/011a199293172e2256a4/) GSK · Collegeville, Pennsylvania, United States of America [Jobs in Westborough, MA](/locations/us/ma/westborough/)[Jobs in Massachusetts](/locations/us-ma/)[Design jobs](/functions/design/) OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
