As a key member of our Operations Technology team, you’ll support and optimize Amazon’s warehouse systems and automation tools. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Providing Level 2 support for Ubuntu-based hardware, weight scales, Cubiscan, and other tech systems.
  • Offering first-level support for Amazon WMS, Auto Sorter, and Green Grass servers.
  • Diagnosing and resolving system issues—software, mechanical, electrical, or connectivity-related.
  • Coordinating with Amazon and external suppliers to resolve incidents and minimize downtime.
  • Acting as a subject matter expert during new project implementations and daily operations.
  • Training warehouse operators on automation systems and best practices.
  • Monitoring system performance and recommending improvements.
  • Documenting incidents, configurations, and maintenance activities.
  • Ensuring compliance with safety and operational standards.
  • Supporting integration testing during commissioning phases with Amazon WMS.

What You’ll Bring

We’re looking for someone who’s hands-on, proactive, and thrives in a collaborative environment. You’ll need:

  • Bachelor’s degree in information systems or IT, or equivalent technical training.
  • 2+ years of experience supporting Amazon WMS and automation systems (Auto Sorter, Green Grass, Ubuntu).
  • Strong knowledge of Ubuntu/Linux systems and warehouse hardware (scales, label printers, RF guns, Cubiscan).
  • Familiarity with warehouse automation (sorters, conveyors) and system integration.
  • Excellent troubleshooting skills across mechanical, electrical, and software domains.
  • Ability to read technical schematics and diagrams.
  • Strong communication skills for training and coordination.
  • A can-do attitude, eagerness to learn, and methodical approach to problem-solving.
  • Willingness to provide on-call support during critical periods.

What Success Looks Like

  • Smooth, uninterrupted warehouse operations.
  • Strong collaboration with internal teams and external partners.
  • Continuous improvement of systems and processes.
  • Confident, well-trained warehouse operators.
