    Description

    Do you want to own the financial strategy for a sub same day supply chain network from the ground up? Do you thrive in ambiguous, high-growth environments where you get to build the frameworks rather than inherit them? Do you want to be the finance leader who shapes how Amazon thinks about cost, routing, and investment for its fastest-scaling delivery program? If so, SSD Supply Chain Finance is looking for a Finance Manager with a record of achieving results.

    The SSD Finance team owns the end-to-end cost architecture for Amazon"s Same-Day Delivery network, the platform that ties together Amazon"s biggest bets in Grocery, Drones, Ultra-Fast, and Robotics. This role will serve as the finance owner for the sub same day inbound supply chain, Amazon"s fastest growing inbound freight and fulfillment program for general merchandise within the sub-same day network, managing lane-level transportation economics (cost per mile, utilization, total cost per unit), building cost models for new routing strategies, and partnering with Supply Chain and Operations leaders to drive the right investment decisions as the network scales.

    The successful candidate will demonstrate an ability to influence business owners, support thoughtful decision-making, and adapt to a rapidly-evolving environment where the data infrastructure and planning frameworks are still being built. They will collaborate with stakeholders across Supply Chain, Operations, and Transportation, bring excellent verbal and written communication skills, and drive the highest-priority work forward in an environment where priorities shift weekly. A typical day in this role provides an opportunity to build financial models that directly inform network design decisions, partner with operations leaders on cost performance, and solve complex problems across inbound freight routing, carrier economics, and capacity planning that shape the future of Amazon"s delivery network.

    • Building financial models and cost bridges for weekly and monthly business reviews that land on Director and Vice President desks, translating operational variances into actionable recommendations
    • Partnering directly with Supply Chain and Operations leaders to validate routing assumptions, challenge capacity plans, and quantify trade-offs for network expansion decisions
    • Identifying opportunities to reduce inbound transportation costs through data analysis, benchmarking key performance indicators, and developing new metrics where none exist today
    • Contributing to planning cycles (Operating Plan, Quarterly Guidance) by building bottoms-up cost forecasts for a network that is actively scaling, requiring judgment calls on assumptions with limited historical data
    • Implementing solutions to simplify, automate, and scale financial reporting processes, including contributing to AI-powered automation initiatives for Weekly Business Review reporting and entitlement tracking

    It’s Always Day 1
    At Amazon, it’s always “Day 1.” Now, what does this mean and why does it matter? It means that our approach remains the same as it was on Amazon’s very first day – to make smart, fast decisions, stay nimble, invent, and stay focused on delighting our customers. In our 2016 shareholder letter, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos shared his thoughts on how to keep up a Day 1 company mindset. “Staying in Day 1 requires you to experiment patiently, accept failures, plant seeds, protect saplings, and double down when you see customer delight,” he wrote. “A customer-obsessed culture best creates the conditions where all of that can happen.” You can read the full letter here
