Do you want to turn manufacturing data into decisions that move physical parts through a factory? Amazon Manufacturing Services (AMS) runs 135+ machines producing custom parts for over 100 Amazon organizations, and nearly every machine, order, and operator action generates data worth analyzing. You will join a small, growing data engineering team that owns the pipelines, warehouse, dashboards, and ML workflows that turn raw signals from our services and enterprise systems into throughput, utilization, and quality insights for shop floor users and AMS leadership. The scope is broad, the stakeholders are in the building, and your models will influence how Amazon makes things.

Key job responsibilities

  • Design and operate data pipelines on AWS Glue (PySpark), Kinesis, S3, and EventBridge to ingest DynamoDB streams and enterprise system data into the AMS data lake
  • Model and maintain the Redshift warehouse and S3/Athena data lake that power analytics across AMS services
  • Build ingestion and modeling layers for enterprise data sources including SAP S/4HANA, JobBoss, Siemens Teamcenter, and Dot Compliance
  • Develop QuickSight dashboards for shop floor operators, planners, and AMS leadership, covering operational metrics and executive KPIs
  • Build and deploy ML models and pipelines for manufacturing use cases such as demand forecasting, machine health prediction, and scheduling optimization
  • Own data quality, lineage, and documentation across the AMS analytics stack
  • Collaborate with senior SDEs on architecture, service event schemas, and integration patterns, while holding significant ownership over your part of the data domain

A day in the life

Your day starts with a standup alongside SDEs, data engineers, and manufacturing stakeholders. You pick up where you left off on a React component that displays real-time resource status for shop floor planners. After lunch, you shift to a backend service, designing a DynamoDB schema for part versioning. A code review comes in from a senior engineer working on an enterprise integration bridge, and you spend time understanding how AMS connects to external manufacturing platforms.

Some weeks lean more frontend - building interactive data visualizations or responsive layouts for shop floor devices. Other weeks lean more backend - implementing event-sourced entity patterns or integrating with third-party APIs. The mix depends on the sprint and your strengths.

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.

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.
