Are you a builder who thrives at the intersection of technology and supply chain? Do you want your work to directly lower costs for hundreds of millions of customers worldwide?
Amazon's Global Supply Chain and Transportation Procurement (GSCTP) organization is looking for a Technical Program Manager to lead vendor onboarding automation and integration programs across North American transportation. In this role, you will own the technical strategy for how Amazon connects with its transportation partners, designing and deploying AI-powered tools, driving system integrations, and eliminating manual processes at scale.
This is a high-impact role where your work directly fuels Amazon's flywheel: by reducing procurement cycle times and automating vendor connectivity, you lower our cost structure, which enables lower prices, which improves customer experience, which drives growth. You'll operate with significant autonomy, partnering with engineering teams, procurement leaders, and operations stakeholders to deliver measurable efficiency gains against GSCTP's goal of 50% process automation.
If you're excited about building intelligent automation from scratch, leading programs that span multiple teams, and seeing your work reflected in Amazon's ability to deliver faster and more affordably, we'd love to talk.
Key job responsibilities
A day in the life
Your morning begins by reviewing vendor risk dashboards and prioritizing compliance actions to keep onboarding timelines on track. You then partner with engineers to troubleshoot a carrier integration launch. Mid-day, you demo a prototype AI workflow to your director, one that eliminates 40 hours of weekly manual reviews. After lunch, you mentor a teammate through an integration architecture challenge, then shift to sprint planning with cross-functional partners. You close the day sending a concise leadership update on automation milestones delivered this week.
About the team
Global Supply Chain and Transportation Procurement manages Amazon's strategic relationships with transportation and logistics providers worldwide. We negotiate agreements that deliver optimal cost, quality, and capacity, directly enabling the fast, affordable delivery customers expect. Our team is driving a bold automation transformation, targeting 50% efficiency gains through AI and modern tooling. We're a collaborative group of builders and operators who believe technology should eliminate toil, not create it. Here, your ideas move quickly from whiteboard to production.
