Masters in Engineering OR MBA – Promotion 2026: Pathways Operations Manager (Leadership Accelerator Program)

Launch your career with Amazon by solving complex operational challenges that impact millions of customers worldwide. As an Operations Manager in our Pathways Program, designed for recent MBA or Masters in Engineering grads ready to make an immediate impact, you'll lead cross-functional teams, manage people, processes, and technology, and drive continuous improvement across one of the most innovative operations environments globally.

From Day 1, you'll work on real business challenges, optimizing operations, enhancing the customer experience, and implementing scalable solutions across our global network. This is your opportunity to develop strategic leadership capabilities while building expertise in one of the world's most complex operational environments.

PROGRAM OVERVIEW:

Pathways is Amazon's three-year Operations Leadership Development Program, designed to cultivate the next generation of senior operations leadership at Amazon. Participants will gain high visibility with senior executives while tackling challenging assignments across diverse sites, technologies, and geographies within our world-class operations network.

Day to day, participants will collaborate with cross-functional teams to solve complex operational challenges, take on progressively greater responsibilities, and work on real business initiatives that directly impact our operations. Along the way, participants will learn from experienced leaders, participate in cohort-based learning sessions, and build a network of peers who will become their professional community throughout their career at Amazon.

This program is designed to build global leadership capabilities and prepare participants for executive-level impact.

Step 2: Operations Manager - Take on greater responsibility by leading and developing other managers. You'll drive process improvements and collaborate cross-functionally across your site, region, and network.

Step 3: Senior Operations Manager - Graduate from the program as a senior leader known for operational excellence. In this role, you'll lead through others to execute regional or network-level initiatives, whether that's launching a new business, leading a major project, or running an entire site.
