Site Operations Leader, MHS - Field

Description

As a Site Operations Leader within the OneMHS Installation & Deployment (I&D) team, you will serve as the central engineering coordinator for large-scale material handling equipment (MHE) installation projects in greenfield and brownfield Amazon fulfillment environments. You will work directly alongside installation teams on active construction sites, owning the project schedule and coordinating all on-site project teams, sub-team leaders, and cross‑functional stakeholders to deliver complex MHE systems from equipment receipt through commissioning.

You will independently manage the project schedule, procurement workflows, equipment logistics, and budget administration for MHE installation projects ranging from $50M to $100M+ in scope. Working directly with mechanical installation leads, electrical installation leads, controls engineers, commissioning teams, and external MHE vendors, you will be the single‑threaded owner for site‑level coordination — ensuring all teams are aligned, resources are sequenced correctly, and the project stays on track.

This is a field‑based engineering role embedded within active construction sites. You will operate in a fast‑paced, ambiguous environment where you proactively identify schedule risks, resolve inter‑team dependencies, and drive continuous improvement in how Amazon deploys MHE systems at scale.
