    Key job responsibilities

    • Own the development, maintenance, and execution of network capacity plans for internal and outsourced sites, covering short-term (4-week), operational (monthly/quarterly), and long-term (3-year) planning horizons.
    • Proactively identify and mitigate capacity risks by mapping dependencies across internal sites and Global Outsourcing vendor partners. Communicate risks and mitigation plans to the right stakeholders clearly and with specificity. Coordinate with CS Operations and GO Vendor Management teams to ensure staffing plans are aligned with service level targets and outsourcing strategy.
    • Support quarterly submissions to CS Finance, providing accurate Year-to-Go (YTG) labor cost projections and revisions versus OP targets.
    • Independently apply AI tools (e.g., AgentZ, Kiro) to improve planning workflows without prompting, identifying opportunities to increase the speed, quality, and scale of planning outputs. Develop side-of-desk automation for repetitive tasks within your planning workstream, demonstrating measurable productivity improvement.
    • Build repeatable frameworks that prevent entire categories of planning problems from recurring, becoming the go-to resource when a planning challenge is genuinely hard.
    • Present analysis and planning recommendations to leadership independently, adapting your communication style for technical and non-technical, operational and strategic audiences. Write clear, concise, and compelling narratives for QBRs, MBRs, and planning reviews. Documents must meet Amazon"s standard formatting guidelines, with conclusions that tie to the organization"s working-backwards framework.
    • Communicate complex planning ideas in a way that is accessible to senior, non-expert audiences. Align cross-functional stakeholders (Operations, Finance, HR, Training and others) to embed planning inputs into execution and operational decision making.

    About Company

    At Amazon, we don’t wait for the next big idea to present itself. We envision the shape of impossible things and then we boldly make them reality. So far, this mindset has helped us achieve some incredible things. Let’s build new systems, challenge the status quo, and design the world we want to live in. We believe the work you do here will be the best work of your life.

    Wherever you are in your career exploration, Amazon likely has an opportunity for you. Our research scientists and engineers shape the future of natural language understanding with Alexa. Fulfillment center associates around the globe send customer orders from our warehouses to doorsteps. Product managers set feature requirements, strategy, and marketing messages for brand new customer experiences. And as we grow, we’ll add jobs that haven’t been invented yet.

    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

    Our Leadership Principles help us keep a Day 1 mentality. They aren’t just a pretty inspirational wall hanging. Amazonians use them, every day, whether they’re discussing ideas for new projects, deciding on the best solution for a customer’s problem, or interviewing candidates.
