Job description

Are you looking to become a leader in operations strategy for a Fortune 100 company? Amazon is looking for leaders in the space of Network Design & Planning, Supply Chain, Customer Service, Customer Returns, Inventory Planning and Transportation. We need leaders capable of breaking down and solving complex problems for the benefit of over 120 million customers.

Amazon is seeking a Senior Supply Chain Manager to identify, develop and integrate innovative solutions and programs that lead to improvements that redefine the standards for customer experience in our North American transportation network. Amazon transportation encompasses all of the operations that deliver shipments from our fulfillment centers and third party locations to customers worldwide.

As a Senior Supply Chain Manager on the Planning Team, this role will analyze the delivery performance across the North American transportation network, identify improvement opportunities and then take business improvement programs from inception to successful implementation. This involves but is not limited to building stakeholder relationships, addressing transportation network design, and developing innovative programs that drive improvements in our transportation processes.

Key job responsibilities

- Drive the evolution of the middle mile network strategy by continuously evaluating emerging demand patterns, node launches, and program expansions to inform where and how connectivity should scale.

- Establish and maintain design principles that guide decision-making when competing priorities arise, codifying how the network balances speed, cost, and resilience in practice.

- Simulate and validate proposed network configurations against real-world variability, ensuring design choices are timed well to support peak and non-peak periods

- Build and maintain visibility mechanisms that surface network performance insights to leadership, enabling data-driven prioritization and rapid course correction on a recurring cadence.

- Own the operational response framework for network disruptions, proactively identifying vulnerability points and deploying contingency routing to preserve customer promise during degraded conditions.

- Partner across organizations to build consensus on capital allocation, capacity planning, and design trade-offs that require multi-team commitment and shared accountability.

- Ideate and sequence initiatives that simplify middle mile complexity, reducing unnecessary handoffs while improving sortation efficiency

About the team

The Network Design, Planning and Engineering (NDPE) team supports the connectivity and flow of Amazon's transportation network through data-driven insights. We are a collaborative group of supply chain managers, data scientists and data engineers who value curiosity, knowledge sharing, and building reliable, scalable solutions. Our work directly impacts how millions of packages move through Amazon's outbound network every day.

We foster a learning-focused environment where team members grow through mentorship, technical reviews, and exposure to complex, large-scale data challenges.
