Are you inspired by invention? Is problem solving through teamwork in your DNA? We apply advances in robotics and software to solve real-world problems that delight our customers" experiences in ways we can"t even imagine yet. Amazon Robotics is the global leader of robotics innovation. Our diverse team of engineers come from all over the world to design, test and build our dynamic fleet of robots and mechatronic systems. Current advancements are underway in autonomous movement and mobility, artificial intelligence and machine learning, manipulation, simulation, robotic management software, predictive analytics, and much more.

The Amazon Robotics (AR) Digital System Development (DSD) team builds and supports enterprise platforms and integrations that make Amazon Robotics product lifecycle management, manufacturing planning, and supply chain operations seamless. Our team is looking for an innovative, results-oriented System Development Engineer (SysDE) focused on enterprise integration to design and scale the event-driven middleware that connects our cloud-native platforms to third-party PLM applications (Oracle Agile PLM, Siemens Teamcenter), ERP systems (Oracle EBS, SAP S/4HANA), MES (Tulip), and external trading partners including third-party logistics providers (3PLs) and critical suppliers. You will own both the internal (integration contracts, event buses, API orchestration layers, and data transformation pipelines across our product portfolio) and external (B2B partner integrations enabling real-time inventory management, order fulfillment, and supply chain collaboration with AR"s global logistics network).

The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced environment, is passionate about building enterprise integration platforms that handle 100K+ requests per second, and thinks in terms of event schemas, connectors, B2B data interchange standards, and integration contracts rather than individual application features. Successful candidates will be a high-bandwidth SysDE who can map complex data flows across heterogeneous internal systems and external partner ecosystems, simplify relentlessly, deliver results, and build integration solutions that scale globally.

Key job responsibilities

Design, build, and scale the enterprise integration platform (hub-and-spoke architecture) that orchestrates data flow between PLM, ERP, IAM, and AI systems internally, and 3PL/supplier systems externally

Develop and maintain event-driven connectors, API routes, and data transformation pipelines that enable upstream and downstream systems including external trading partners to publish and subscribe to product lifecycle and supply chain events

Design and implement partner onboarding patterns that reduce 3PL integration timelines from months to weeks through standardized, reusable connector frameworks and industry-standard protocols (EDI, AS2, API-based interchange)

Build and operate real-time and batch integration pipelines using AWS services (EventBridge, Step Functions, Lambda, ECS/Fargate, DynamoDB, S3, SQS/SNS)

Design schema mapping and data transformation logic across heterogeneous enterprise systems.

Troubleshoot complex integration failures spanning multiple system boundaries both internal services and external partner connections applying cross-domain understanding to diagnose root causes in distributed event-driven architectures

Instrument integration pipelines with comprehensive observability (metrics, tracing, alerting) and drive operational excellence through COE/post-mortem processes

Partner with product teams to onboard new internal event producers/consumers, and partner with Supply Chain and Logistics teams to onboard new 3PL and supplier integrations.

About the Company

Amazon.com Inc

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.
