    The Leo Supply Chain team is looking for a Sr. Supply Chain Program Manager to develop supply chain strategies and implement scalable processes that support Leo"s expanding spare parts program and fielded inventory globally.

    You will work across Sourcing, AWS, Leo Engineering, Operations, Trade Compliance, and Finance to build supply chain solutions that get the right hardware to the right place at the right time.

    • Document and standardize processes; create playbooks and Standard Operating Procedures aligned with cross-functional stakeholders
    • De-risk delivery timelines and critical escalations through mechanism creation and establishing clear ownership
    • Drive continuous improvement initiatives that streamline deployment workflows, eliminate redundant steps, and create predictable, repeatable processes
    • Prioritize projects and activities to deliver maximum impact and reliable on-time hardware delivery

    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.
