    • Drive solutions to reduce and eliminate any short or long term gaps in supply plans.

    A day in the life

    Supply Planning Managers are responsible for production planning and order fulfillment for Amazon Devices. Supply Planning Managers are connected in the planning process throughout a product's entire lifecycle, from New Product Introduction (NPI) to End of Manufacturing (EOM).

    A typical week starts by understanding week-over- week demand changes and how that impacts the business's ability to balance supply to demand. You will analyze planned versus actual production as inputs change and will communicate supply and operations constraints to cross-functional stakeholders and executives. You will anticipate stocking levels based on demand strategies, create and implement risk mitigation strategies to eliminate supply chain disruptions and drive decisions based on costs using data and inputs from cross-functional teams.

    Your weekly planning deliverables will drive capacity decisions and component purchases upstream to suppliers and set the production strategy with Amazon's electronic manufacturing suppliers.
