New to robotics? No problem! We value your strong technical expertise in other domains and provide the training you need to succeed. Join us at Amazon Robotics and see how your work can drive innovation and make a real impact!

Key job responsibilities

1. Service Restoration: Investigate and resolve technical issues through our in-house ticketing system. Leverage data sources and logs to diagnose hardware or software faults within the Amazon Robotics environment, including robotics performance issues, server disruptions affecting robot navigation, and robotic station malfunctions.
2. Collaboration: Work closely with on-site robotics technicians and engineers, guiding their troubleshooting efforts. Partner with software development engineers to ensure seamless integration and functionality of the code that powers our robotic systems.
3. High-Severity Calls: Play a key role in resolving critical issues impacting the customer experience. Participate in live troubleshooting sessions via conference bridge, coordinate resolution efforts, and escalate when necessary. Use logs, dashboards, and data dumps to pinpoint problematic components and develop mitigation strategies.
4. Process Improvement & Automation: Drive continuous improvement by refining processes and procedures, contributing to internal projects, and identifying opportunities for automation—enhancing efficiency for both our team and our customers.

About the team

We are Amazon’s top-tier robotics problem solvers. As a global team of robotic systems specialists across the US, EU, and APAC, we are expanding our presence in London to support our 24/7 global operations.

In this role, you will provide remote technical support through tickets and voice communication, ensuring the reliability and performance of our robotics systems. To set you up for success, we offer comprehensive internal training, hands-on mentorship both onsite and remotely, and additional training at customer locations.

Work Schedule & Remote Policy: This is a full-time, five-day workweek role, with one of those days being a Saturday or Sunday to help maintain seamless 24/7 support. In line with Amazon’s Return to Office policy, this role includes a combination of office and remote work.

Minimum Requirements:

1. Relevant Bachelor’s degree, or equivalent combination of education and experience.
2. Experience in technical support experience supporting enterprise systems, platforms, or applications in a first-line (or above) operations team (the focus should be on troubleshooting and root-causing issues, not necessarily system configuration).
