Technical Program Manager, OneMHS

Job Summary Amazon OneMHS Hardware is seeking a highly motivated Technical Program Manager to help define, deliver, and scale the next generation of material handling equipment (MHE). You will play a pivotal role driving cross‑functional programs across mechanical, electrical, and controls teams—both within Amazon and with external OEM partners. As a TPM, you will own program execution from concept through launch, ensuring alignment between engineering, product management, and operations. You will help shape Amazon’s R&D pipeline, establish scalable mechanisms, and deliver innovative solutions that transform how we design, build, and deploy automation systems across Amazon’s global network.

Translate business needs into technical requirements; ensure documentation, testing, and validation align with standards. Partner with third‑party OEMs to assess capabilities, negotiate alignment, and manage joint development programs. Establish mechanisms to track progress, identify risks, and accelerate or resolve issues quickly. Support R&D initiatives that challenge traditional conveyance, sortation, and robotics solutions.

Share program management best practices, foster a culture of ownership, safety, and continuous improvement. Manage risk through proactive identification and mitigation strategies. Stay current with emerging technologies in automation, robotics, and industrial equipment. About The Team Amazon installs a significant quantity of new buildings every year. The historical model has been to allow each integrator to use their own equipment, controls, subsystems, and methodologies. While that has allowed Amazon to be successful to this point, the variability between buildings has proven difficult to support and scale. One MHS’ charge is to build partnerships to focus on consistency and scalability across our network of the future. We will be partnering with key suppliers to help them scale up their manufacturing capabilities to keep up with our needs, as well as refining their designs to drive innovation and operational uptime and better meet the specific needs of Amazon’s operational environment. Basic Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, or an equivalent engineering science. 5+ years of program management, project management or product management experience. Experience leading cross‑functional teams to establish strong partnerships with demonstrable results. Experience conveying complex technical concepts to both technical and business audiences. Experience completing complex tasks quickly with little to no guidance and reacting with appropriate urgency to situations that require a quick turnaround, or managing multiple calendars. Experience with agile or other program management methodologies. Experience in technical support, or experience that includes strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and effective communication abilities. Experience working with OEM vendors and external partners. Preferred Qualifications Master’s degree in engineering, commerce, business administration or equivalent. Experience designing or implementing integrated automation solutions such as material handling systems, high-speed packaging lines, or manufacturing lines. Experience supporting a wide range of different conveyors and sortation systems. Knowledge of consumer product compliance processes and regulations.
