Amazon Extra Large (AMXL) owns the P&L and end-to-end (E2E) customer experience for large, heavy, and bulky products, consolidating strategy, analytics, tech, operations, warehousing, fulfillment, transportation, and delivery. AMXL also offers special handling such as Room of Choice delivery, Haul-Away, and Installation/Assembly, and operates in NA, EU, JP, and IN.

As the Senior Supply Chain Manager and single-threaded leader for Last Mile planning, you will own the full current year volume and coverage plan that gets heavy and bulky products to customers across North America (NA). You will turn demand into package-level volume by origin, package type, and route type, set how volume splits across our own delivery fleet and partner carriers, and plan the scheduled deliveries, special handling services, and customer return pickups that define the AMXL experience. You will own the coverage and attainment view for the own-fleet and rural delivery networks and build the zip-level demand distributions the plan depends on. Your plan ties directly to transportation capacity and first and third party carrier strategy, and is committed at the most senior levels of the organization. If you want to own current year last mile strategy and see your plan steer real network and carrier decisions, this role is built for you.

Key job responsibilities

  • Serve as the single-threaded leader for the North America AMXL Last Mile full year volume plan, owning weekly package volume by origin, package type, and route type and refreshing it each quarter.
  • Build the delivered volume bridge, the key deliverable that attributes every change in last mile volume to a specific driver and quantified impact, drawing on deep understanding of the end to end drivers to build the optimal plan aligned with strategy.
  • Own the coverage and attainment plan for the own fleet and rural delivery networks, and the package mix across first and third party carriers, including route eligible and route exclusive volume and package profiles.
  • Own planning for scheduled deliveries, special handling services (Room of Choice, Haul-Away, Installation/Assembly), and customer return pickups, integrating them into the weekly volume plan.
  • Translate demand into zip level distributions that roll up into delivery jurisdictions to set coverage, units per box, and transit time, and plan rural delivery volume.
  • Surface and mitigate volume, coverage, and attainment risk before plans lock, tie it to capacity and carrier strategy, and drive leadership to lock challenging yet achievable commitments.
  • Invent and simplify planning mechanisms and automation, own the handoff to finance, transportation, and planning partners, and communicate changes, risks, and trade-offs to senior leadership.

A day in the life

You start where strategy and risk meet: reading demand to see which origins are shifting, how the package mix is moving, and how much the own fleet and rural networks can cover. You refine the volume, package, and coverage plans, update scheduled delivery, services, and returns numbers, and make sure the zip level picture ties out to coverage and transit time targets. You partner with transportation, finance, and operations to pressure test inputs and align leaders on the trade-offs, locking the commitments that drive carrier and capacity strategy and shaping the next plan.

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
