The Reliability Maintenance Engineering (RME) team at Amazon is fundamental to our operations – they’re the ones keeping vital machinery running at all times. As an RME Technician, you’ll maintain a wide range of equipment and work spaces while upholding Health and Safety best practices. You'll help keep your colleagues safe and prevent machine downtime. Our RME Technicians boost the availability and quality of our equipment and work to enhance the operational environment.

Our RME Technicians are based on‑site, so they can respond quickly to any machinery issues.

You’ll also suggest long‑term improvements, work alongside senior colleagues, and liaise with contractors when external expertise is required. You’ll work day, night, and weekend shifts to support the sites around the clock.

Our RME team keeps equipment performing at its best. We’re technically minded, excellent team players, and guided by experienced leaders.
