    Key job responsibilities

    Builder Advocacy: Build trust through consistent floor/onsite presence, site walks & gemba walks. Proactively monitor Builder sentiment trends using listening mechanisms. Support Builder queries with discretion and expertise. Foster and role model an environment of inclusion for all Builders, ensuring they feel fully engaged in their work and valued for who they are. Establish relationships with employee representative boards.

    Strategic Partnership: Partner with Data Center leaders at multiple levels to develop proactive strategies and goals focused on the Builder experience. Identify root causes using sentiment trends and HR data and provide site-level recommendations to site leadership. Coordinate cluster-wide communications in partnership with site leadership. Present at monthly All Manager and All Team Meetings.

    HR Expertise: Apply HR fundamentals to problem-solve across talent management, performance management, compensation, and employee relations. Resolve complex cases independently, navigating Amazon Policies with high judgment. Conduct workplace investigations in collaboration with Builder Relations. Resolve systemic pay, internal transfer, and hiring defects in partnership with central teams. Build procedural policy/governance standards (e.g., SOPs).

    Leadership Development: Consult, coach, and develop site leadership through decision-making with empathy and sound judgment. Identify development opportunities through data and anecdotal feedback from onsite floor walks and observation. Educate leaders on HR operating model standards.

You"ll leverage Builder sentiment data to advocate for their needs, partnering with site leaders to develop proactive strategies focused on engagement. You"ll consult and coach leadership through talent management, performance management, compensation decisions, and employee relations issues-applying empathy and sound judgment. You"ll collaborate with stakeholders to align on Builder engagement actions. You"ll conduct workplace investigations, manage Builder concerns as the first point of escalation, and own site-specific people projects that drive impact.

    A day in the life

    This is a 100% Onsite role and requires the ability to travel to assigned Data Center sites within an operational cluster (estimated 25% travel).

    • Data Center environments are 24/7 operational facilities; flexibility to support off-shift populations and respond to time-sensitive people matters is expected.

    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
    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.
