Key Responsibilities:

  1. Utilize data analytics, root cause analysis, design of experiments, and six sigma methods to improve reliability and availability of critical automation equipment and robotics & mechatronics systems.
  2. Demonstrate analytical and quantitative skills, using hard data and analysis techniques to back up assumptions and develop business cases.

  6. Engage cross-functional teams of maintenance technicians, engineers, product owners, and leaders within RME to deliver structured problem-solving.
  7. Design, pilot, and implement new preventative maintenance standards, interval adjustments, part replacement cycles, and work instruction streamlining based on granular analysis of reliability (MTBF, MTTR, OEE, etc.) trends across assets.
  8. Develop automated reporting through advanced SQL and Quicksight to provide RME leadership with actionable insights, trends, and analysis around equipment uptime, failures, SLA performance, and other key metrics.
  9. Drive effective teamwork, communication, collaboration, and commitment across multiple disparate groups with competing priorities, leading the effective and efficient delivery of large, complex technical projects and programs.
  10. Anticipate bottlenecks, provide escalation management, anticipate and make trade-offs, and balance business needs with technical constraints.
  11. Provide guidance to maintenance teams and field technicians on equipment maintenance and complex issue troubleshooting and resolution, interacting directly with functions like Engineering, Operations, and Facilities on technical matters.

A day in the life of this role will involve working closely with cross-functional teams, analyzing data, and implementing solutions to improve the reliability and efficiency of our automation equipment. This role requires strong analytical and problem-solving skills, as well as the ability to communicate effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

We offer a full range of benefits to support you and your eligible family members, including medical, dental, and vision coverage, maternity and parental leave options, paid time off (PTO), and a 401(k) plan. Amazon is an equal opportunities employer, and we value diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
