The Manufacturing Automation Design & Engineering team designs, validates, and deploys automation solutions, including robotics, cobots, vision inspection, AI-powered quality systems, and automated assembly workflows, across contract manufacturer sites worldwide. ### About the Role You will own end-to-end automation process engineering for the Graviton platform family. This includes defining automated assembly sequences, specifying robotic cell requirements, developing process validation protocols, and driving automation deployment at contract manufacturer sites for this platform. You serve as the single-threaded owner for all automation decisions affecting Graviton production, working with central engineering specialists (robotics, vision, controls, mechanical) to apply their capabilities to your platform's unique requirements. You translate platform-specific product design characteristics into automation process specifications. You work closely with the Product Design vertical (Hardware Engineering) to manage automation requirements, participate in design reviews, and provide feedback on assembly compatibility for the Graviton platform. You serve as the point of contact for automation during New Product Introduction (NPI), supporting the product design team in transitioning new Graviton designs from prototype to production-ready automated assembly, ensuring automation readiness is built into the NPI process from the earliest stages. You also partner with the Manufacturing Process Quality vertical to define quality verification requirements, validate process capability, and ensure automation solutions meet quality targets before production sign-off. The scope covers all server and rack assembly across all architectures and platforms, including compute, AI/ML accelerators, storage, and networking. The team designs intelligent, predictive-analytics-driven production systems where every station is sensor-driven, AI-optimized, and self-correcting, turning assembly lines into programmable, data-generating platforms that scale capacity without scaling headcount. This role requires the engineer to operate in a fast-paced, multi-platform international manufacturing environment with travel to contract manufacturer sites (up to 25-30% travel anticipated). ### Key job responsibilities - Own automation process specifications for Graviton platform assembly operations - Define automated assembly sequences and station allocations for platform-specific operations - Develop and execute process validation protocols for automated stations on Graviton lines - Drive automation deployment and ramp at contract manufacturer sites for the Graviton platform - Identify automation opportunities specific to Graviton architecture and drive business case development - Coordinate with central engineering specialists to apply robotic, vision, and controls solutions to platform needs ### Own platform-specific automation KPIs - throughput, quality yield, automation rate, and cycle time targets - Partner with Hardware Engineering to influence product design for automated assembly compatibility - Collaborate with Manufacturing Process Quality to define quality verification requirements and validate process capability for automated stations - Serve as the automation point of contact during NPI, supporting product design teams in transitioning new Graviton designs to production-ready automated assembly - Partner with Hardware Engineering (Product Design vertical) to manage automation requirements and participate in design reviews for new Graviton configurations About the team ### About the team The Manufacturing Automation Design & Engineering team is building a centralized automation Center of Excellence that owns the process specification and IP for how AWS hardware gets assembled. The team is responsible for engineering, defining automated process requirements, designing and proving solutions at proof-of-concept, and maintaining AWS-owned intellectual property that scales globally. The team works within a collaborative framework across Hardware Engineering (product design for automation), Manufacturing Automation Design & Engineering (process specification and validation), and Manufacturing Operations (deployment and scaling), ensuring automation is engineered once, proven once, and deployed everywhere. ## At a glance - Posted by the employer: Oct 7, 2026 - First seen by OpenNash: Oct 11, 2026 - Last checked: Oct 18, 2026 - Listed for: 11 days - Location: US, CA, Cupertino[Apply on Amazon’s careers site →](https://www.amazon.jobs/en/jobs/10571465/automation-process-engineer-manufacturing-automation-design-engineering) ## More jobs at Amazon ### [MLA Design Verification Engineer I, Annapurna Labs](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/1d4cb12ffe7a6ecf094b/) US, CA, Cupertino ### [Physical Design Verification Manager, Annapurna Labs](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/77ac748319b6950bdfdb/) US, CA, Cupertino ### [Power Electronics Engineer, AWS Board Core Design Services, Power Team](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/0a0ea2ff2d10836f8aa1/) US, CA, Cupertino ### [SOC Top Level Physical Design Engineer, Annapurna Labs](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/f3d08bce5edefc9f3aec/) US, CA, Cupertino ### [Sr Hardware Development Engineer, AWS Board Core Design and Services Team](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/amazon/jobs/a035a8a94e51cb29d511/) US, CA, Cupertino ## Similar jobs at other companies ### [Process Automation Engineer III, Manufacturing Engineering](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/thermo-fisher-scientific/jobs/103a8f34421ce04bc9f5/) Thermo Fisher Scientific · St. Louis, Missouri, United States of America ### [Manufacturing Engineer I (Process Engineer)](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/airbus/jobs/3d2f8c5b91725bb44142/) AIRBUS · Mobile Area, AL ### [Manufacturing Process Engineer - Early Career](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/lockheed-martin/jobs/ad1b7682a535a3b70165/) Lockheed Martin · Troy, AL ### [Manufacturing Process Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/bae-systems/jobs/25039ecec143d042e4d5/) BAE Systems · Maple Grove, Minnesota, United States ### [Aseptic Beverage Manufacturing Process Engineer](https://jobs.opennash.com/companies/kroger/jobs/a766bdfd684dc949f772/) Kroger · Denver, CO, United States OpenNash lists jobs from employers’ own careers sites and does not handle applications.
