RME Mechatronics Apprentice - Launch Your Engineering Career with Amazon

Fascinated by the mechanics behind automated systems? Want to master both electrical and mechanical engineering while working with cutting‑edge technology? Amazon is the perfect place to launch your engineering career in Mechatronics Maintenance.

As one of the world's most advanced technology‑driven companies, we are powered by automation, robotics, and continuous innovation. From cutting‑edge robotic arms to complex conveyor networks and smart sensor technology, you will work with the systems that keep millions of customer orders moving.

This apprenticeship gives you the chance to become a multi‑skilled maintenance technician in both electrical and mechanical disciplines, gaining hands‑on experience with industry‑leading equipment that will shape your future in engineering.

The Reliability Maintenance Engineering (RME) team at Amazon is fundamental to our operations – they keep vital machinery running at all times. As an RME Mechatronics Apprentice, you'll maintain a wide range of equipment and work spaces while upholding Health and Safety best practices. You will learn to keep your colleagues safe and prevent machine downtime, boosting the availability and quality of our equipment and enhancing the operational environment.

Key job responsibilities

• Carrying out proactive and preventative maintenance
• Carrying out reactive repairs, and fault diagnosis in a live distribution warehouse
• Using the latest tools to maximise equipment effectiveness
• Making modifications and upgrades to existing equipment
• Upholding health and safety policies and practices
• Working on continuous improvement projects

Throughout your apprenticeship, you’ll learn valuable skills including fault diagnosis, preventative maintenance, fluid power systems assembly and testing, mechanical device maintenance, electrical equipment wiring and testing, hydraulics and pneumatics, and Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) operations.

As part of our team, you’ll respond promptly to breakdowns, investigating, finding, and implementing solutions quickly. You’ll also make suggestions for long‑term improvements. From CAD design, 3D printing, to overseeing general site maintenance and repairing key distribution equipment, our team handles most aspects of Amazon's technical operations.

Here at Amazon, it's in our nature to learn and be curious. Within this apprenticeship you’ll have the opportunity to learn by doing, putting newfound knowledge into practice every day. Our first‑class coaching, tailored development opportunities, and challenging, rewarding work will empower you to reach new heights.

During the first 12 months you will be part of a full‑time residential programme based either at an external training provider facility or at one of our world‑class Amazon training centres. Accommodation will be provided during term time for those who live outside of a commutable distance, and travel expenses will be supported. In later years you will combine day or block release study for your HNC in Engineering or Mechatronics with on‑the‑job training at one of our Fulfilment Centres, Sortation Centres, or Delivery Stations.

You will support our 24/7 operation in shift covering days, nights and weekends in patterns that reflect the real‑world schedules of engineers who keep Amazon operating around the clock.
