Dunstable, United Kingdom Amazon UK Services Ltd. Full time
Operations is at the heart of everything Amazon does, and automation is one of the ways we optimise our processes. As an Automation Engineer, you’ll make sure that our automated systems are working at their best so that our customers get their orders on time. By exploring data on everything from control systems to sensors, you’ll maximise the availability of equipment at your sites. This role puts you at the forefront of Amazon’s emerging technology to solve complex productivity challenges.

Key job responsibilities
- Monitor, troubleshoot and repair issues with key systems
- Work with the EU Controls network to monitor Material Handling Equipment (MHE) metrics
- Provide data visualisations of troubleshooting to internal stakeholders
- Own or actively participate in continuous improvement projects run by the EU Controls network
- Work with different departments to ensure all systems are correctly documented and that accurate backup libraries are maintained
- Work with global colleagues to install and commission new equipment
- Support other sites in the EU Controls network as needed
- Interpret mechanical and electrical drawings, and develop improvement strategies for code conforming to IEC 61131-3

A day in the life
As an Automation Engineer, you’ll be the site expert when it comes to keeping key automated systems running smoothly. You’ll be working with our automation machinery, from conveyors to sortation systems, and ensuring they’re working efficiently. If something has gone wrong or can be done better, you’ll take the lead in coming up with and implementing a solution.

You’ll also share your expertise with your close colleagues. You’ll be keeping your Engineering Technicians up to date with device troubleshooting and preventative maintenance control training, so that your team can keep our automation systems in order.

About the team
Customer Fulfilment, or CF, is where it all started for Amazon. CF has scaled up from a humble team of booksellers to a sophisticated global team which handles more than 1.5 million orders every day. The team is the foundation of our business and its efforts have helped us diversify across new regions and services. With the help of emerging technology, we’re always looking for ways to offer a bigger, better product range – delivered quickly and affordably.

The CF team are the first people in the chain that helps customers get products at the speed we’re known for. We’re based in Fulfilment Centres, which are at the heart of Amazon’s fast-paced Operations network. Our centres are sometimes referred to as the ‘First Mile’ because it’s where most Amazon packages start their journey. We help to manage dynamic inventory and facilitate speedy deliveries round the clock.

Lots of different people work in our Fulfilment Centres, so there are plenty of opportunities for every skillset. Some of us work with physical products, while others analyse data to help everyone across the business make smart decisions.
