Job Description
Without the Amazon Reliability Maintenance Engineering (RME) team, our operations grind to a halt. As an RME Planner in this core part of our large, EU-wide team, you'll be a leading voice in all conversations surrounding the technologies in our warehouses and delivery networks. You'll anticipate problems before they materialise and keep track of the equipment needed for different tasks to keep running smoothly. As the expert in our Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS), you'll be efficient and flexible in a fast-paced warehouse environment.
A day in the life
Establish where maintenance and repairs resource should be allocated using our CMMS software
Understand and implement EU standards across all systems in your scope
Consistently review and analyse on-site equipment, ensuring stock levels remain sufficient
Monitor the maintenance system to ensure that equipment levels are correctly recorded, and that forecasting is accurate
About the team
Our Reliability Maintenance Engineering or RME team keep our equipment performing at its best. We're a technically minded team, made up of excellent team players and guided by experienced leaders. We work together to maintain, troubleshoot and repair equipment across our global network of fulfilment centres. Some of our people are leaders, who oversee the team as they work on exciting technology - some of which only exists at Amazon.
From installing automated packaging systems to overseeing the general maintenance of a site to repairing key distribution equipment, our team handles most aspects of Amazon's technical side. This includes keeping buildings legally compliant, so everyone is safe, and our sites are operating at maximum efficiency. There are lots of opportunities for progression, both within the RME team and more widely across Amazon.
Everything we do focuses on reducing downtime in Amazon's crucial operations sites, so customers get their orders on time. We often work during early or late hours to carry out maintenance with minimal disruption, including night shifts. If we spot a better way to do something, we have the skills and the opportunity to develop and introduce completely new processes or cutting-edge tech like Amazon Robotics and our Complex Item Sorter.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS - Experience in planning, scheduling and auditing maintenance activities
- Experience working with CMMS software
- Experience with shipping & receiving, inventory and warehousing practices
- Experience working with the MS Office suite (Word, Excel, Outlook) in a professional environment
- Speak, write, and read fluently in English at C1 level or above
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS - Bachelor's degree or above in Engineering (any domain), Operations, Business Administration, or a related field
- Experience in enterprise software
- Experience with a Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS)
