Robotics Systems Engineer II, Robotics - Tech Deployment

Robotics Systems Engineer II, Amazon Robotics - Tech Deployment

Join Amazon's Robotics (AR) Technology Deployment team within Amazon Robotics (AR) organization to deploy robotics across North America's fulfillment network. This field engineering position demands strong technical skills for deploying robotic equipment, including mechanical and electrical systems, network configurations, and software coordination. The ideal candidate has experience with complex electro‑mechanical and network systems, large‑scale installations, and system troubleshooting.

Relocation to Amazon Corporate offices in Seattle, Boston, Nashville, or Austin will be required for the role. This is a travel‑based role and you must travel across North America up to 75% of the year.

• You will manage the tactical deployment of large‑scale industrial automation technologies, ranging in technical complexity and product maturity from early alpha/beta to mature Generally Available.
• You will own the tactical execution (on‑site coordination of installation and acceptance testing) to achieve the target “go‑live” date for each project, delivering independently.
• You will collaborate with hardware engineering, technical program managers, product managers, and internal customers including site maintenance and operations teams to convert technical requirements into refined deployment execution documents (schedules, Standard Operating Procedures, dependencies, etc.).
• You will improve operational metrics and team processes through automation and optimization.
• You will independently resolve difficult technical problems during deployment, considering operational burden and making appropriate trade‑offs between time, quality, and resources.
• You will create and improve standard work documents and operational guidebooks, and work towards automating or improving team processes.
• You will influence internal and partner teams towards meeting team‑level goals.
• You will develop subject‑matter expertise in one or more deployment domains.
• You will mentor junior engineers and participate in technical assessment.
• You will drive operational excellence initiatives with measurable results.
• Lift and move totes up to 49 pounds each.
• Perform regular bending, lifting, stretching, and reaching both below the waist and above the head.
• Walk in the FC and around area with great frequency; facilities are over a quarter mile in length.
• Stand/walk for up to 10–12 hours.
• Work in environments with variable noise levels, lighting conditions, and temperature variation.
• Access all areas of building (ascending and descending ladders, stairs, gangways safely and without limitation).

In this role you will focus on the execution of end‑to‑end deployment and manage technical ambiguity around integration of workcells in fulfillment centers. You will collaborate with hardware engineering, technical program managers, product managers, construction teams, and internal customers including site maintenance and operations teams to ensure a safe, on‑time, high‑quality product is delivered to the internal customer. You will travel to your project sites, collaborate both virtually and in person, and manage day‑to‑day project execution while driving continuous improvement activities to improve deployment execution first‑pass yield.
