Be a part of operating the world's largest cloud computing infrastructure. Amazon Web Services is seeking a bright, motivated, hardworking individual to fill the Data Center Logistics Manager position. This impactful position requires analytical strength, attention to detail, open communication and the ability to work autonomously.

The Logistics Manager partners with Infrastructure teams and a wide array of Amazon stakeholders to manage communication, team metrics, and team specific deliverables or milestones.

The role demands a strong sense of urgency and the ability to make sound judgement.

As a strategist and implementer, the Logistics Manager ensures streamlined activities within the organization that guarantee success for the business, and ceaselessly drives their team to invent and simplify at a local, regional, and potentially cross-regional scale.

To accomplish this, Logistics Managers:

Think tactically by using expertise and high judgment to establish the right team structure to respond to customer needs and short business goals. They will make sure their team(s) are operating efficiently, meeting SLAs, and delivering results. They create a plans, communicate requirements, negotiate priorities, and define what success looks like across all levels.
Think strategically by using expertise and high judgment to establish goals in an area where the strategy for may not yet be defined. They set a vision, design a strategy, and achieve consensus on priorities that align with longterm business goals.
Ensure outcomes are auditable, decisions are datadriven, and work quality is measurable; and will use this to determine where to simplify or extend solutions for the best outcome.

Allocate time to set up needed operational metrics, customer intake mechanisms, team training, and documentation (e.g., tutorials, help pages, troubleshooting).
Prioritize root cause resolution, automation where possible, and other projects that improve customer experience, deliverable quality, and the team environment.
