Key job responsibilities
Amazon Prime Air is building the future of autonomous drone delivery. We are looking for a Sr. Commodity Manager to drive key focused procurement commodity strategies for critical drone hardware, ground systems hardware, and technical services - including but not limited to propulsion systems, perception modules, structures, and electronic components. You will drive multi-year supply chain strategies, lead complex supplier transitions, and directly influence how Prime Air scales.
This is not a transactional purchasing role. You will define the "where, who, and how" of our supply base, make high-judgment source decisions that balance cost, quality, risk that align with program requirements, and build the mechanisms that allow procurement to operate at Amazon scale.
You will work at the intersection of engineering, supply chain, manufacturing, quality, and finance - serving as the strategic procurement voice in vehicle program decisions, trade studies, and make-vs-buy analyses.
Additional responsibilities include:
- Strategic Commodity Strategy & Roadmaps
- Strategic Commodity- Available Supplier Assessment, RFI/RFQ, & Source Selection
- Total Cost of procurement responsibility relative to strategic commodities
- Supply Chain Resilience and risk management

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
