OMHS Integration & Deployment is building the team that installs and commissions Amazon's next-generation material handling systems. We are looking for a mechanical equipment subject matter expert for our installation programs, providing technical leadership across the full portfolio of equipment. If you have spent your career with installing or keeping MHE running, you know exactly which installation shortcuts cause the failures maintenance teams live with for years. This role puts that knowledge at the front of the equipment lifecycle. You will develop the installation job plans that define how Amazon's material handling equipment gets assembled, aligned, torqued, and turned over, preventing reliability problems before the equipment ever runs its first package. You will own mechanical installation quality end-to-end: authoring installation job plans and standards, validating contractor execution against them, and driving continuous improvement as system complexity scales. Key job responsibilities Develop installation job plans for MHE equipment, translating equipment expertise into task-level installation procedures with torque specifications, alignment tolerances, assembly sequences, and acceptance criteria Author and maintain mechanical installation standards and pre-turnover punch list criteria for all OMHS equipment types.
