    Job Description

    Amazon is seeking a Senior Program Manager to be the single-threaded leader (STL) for North America Last Mile Fleet Inspections within the Fleet Experience & Compliance team. This role brings centralized ownership and coordination to Amazon's fleet inspection programs - spanning daily vehicle inspection checks, vehicle safety audits, quarterly fleet condition assessments, and ad-hoc audits - across US and CA.

    As the STL, you own the fleet inspections portfolio end-to-end. You are the connective tissue across teams, establishing a dedicated program space, driving coordination across every workstream and region, and building the mechanisms that keep inspection programs consistent, well-governed, and moving forward. Every other responsibility in this role flows from that central mandate: bring clear, single-threaded leadership to NA fleet inspections.

    Key job responsibilities

    Serve as the single-threaded leader for NA fleet inspection programs - providing centralized ownership and coordination for inspection standards, changes, and escalations across all regions.

    Drive cross-functional coordination across field operations leaders, DSP partners, regional teams, data/tech, and international stakeholders, ensuring aligned and timely execution.

    Establish clear governance and a well-understood decision path for cross-region inspection changes, so the right teams can move quickly with confidence.

    Own stakeholder communication and escalation coordination - serve as a central point of contact and help ensure timely, clear communication during time-sensitive safety events.

    Lead new inspection initiatives such as safety audits and expanded inspection coverage - define success metrics, manage cadence, and evaluate favorability and resourcing.

    Own recurring inspection program updates - manage periodic changes to inspection criteria and defect categories, applying a data-driven rationale to what is added, consolidated, or retired.

    Strengthen training and accountability - partner with teams to ensure auditors are properly trained and permissioned and help build coaching mechanisms tied to quality metrics (e.g., completion time, grounding rates).

    Improve data accessibility - partner to consolidate vehicle inspection data across fleet systems into centralized dashboards for fast trend analysis and emergency-response decision-making.

    Continuously improve program mechanisms - evaluate inspection cadences and processes with data-driven rationale to ensure they remain effective and efficient.

    A day in the life

    You are the go-to owner for fleet inspections in North America. On any given day you might align field operations leaders and DSPs (Delivery Service Partners) on a new inspection initiative, help move along a cross-region request to change an inspection standard, guide a safety escalation to resolution across the right teams, and set the cadence and governance that keep stakeholders aligned. When there's a question about fleet inspections in NA, you're the person who knows where it stands - and when there's a decision to be made, you're the driving force behind it.

    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
