Come work on the Amazon Prime Air Team!

Amazon Prime Air is building the future of autonomous drone delivery. We are looking for a Sr. Commodity Manager to drive key focused procurement commodity strategies for critical drone hardware, ground systems hardware, and technical services — including but not limited to propulsion systems, perception modules, structures, and electronic components. You will drive multi-year supply chain strategies, lead complex supplier transitions, and directly influence how Prime Air scales.

This is not a transactional purchasing role. You will define the "where, who, and how" of our supply base, make high-judgment source decisions that balance cost, quality, risk that align with program requirements, and build the mechanisms that allow procurement to operate at Amazon scale.

You will work at the intersection of engineering, supply chain, manufacturing, quality, and finance — serving as the strategic procurement voice in vehicle program decisions, trade studies, and make-vs-buy analyses.
