Job description

Position Overview

Amazon is seeking a Mechanical Integration Lead to drive the successful installation, integration, and deployment of material handling equipment (MHE) across multiple greenfield and brownfield fulfillment center sites. This role provides hands-on mechanical engineering leadership in complex automation environments, ensuring projects meet Amazon's safety, timeline, cost, and quality standards.

Key job responsibilities

Mechanical Installation Leadership

• - Directly manage and lead mechanical installation crews deploying MHE across North American facilities
• - Oversee structural header steel installation including hanging steel, prebuilding supports, and anchoring to building structure
• - Lead conveyor prep and placement operations - rigging, lifting, staging, and setting conveyor sections into final positions on installed supports
• - Manage conveyor connections and belting crews - ensuring proper mechanical alignment, bed connections, squaring, leveling, and hardware tightening
• - Direct side guide and netting installation ensuring proper alignment and tension
• - Oversee belt crew operations including belting and lacing installation on aligned conveyor sections
• - Manage pneumatic/air systems installation including air connections to conveyor components, pressure testing, and leak verification
• - Coordinate with the logistics and receiving team to ensure materials are inventoried, staged, and distributed to work zones on schedule

Quality Control & Commissioning

• - Lead mechanical QC and commissioning activities including alignment verification, hardware inspections, and match-mark verification
• - Oversee conveyor run-in testing, belt tracking verification, and belt tension checks
• - Manage mechanical punch list identification and repair
• - Verify IOQ checks and ensure all mechanical systems meet specifications before handoff to electrical teams
• - Ensure proper match-marking of nuts/bolts to verify tightness across all connections

Technical Leadership & Standards

• - Provide mechanical engineering expertise for automation initiatives across assigned sites
• - Implement technical solutions and lead project-level decisions within the mechanical scope
• - Follow and help develop mechanical installation standards and best practices
• - Create and maintain technical documentation including work instructions, installation SOPs, and QC checklists
• - Participate in design reviews and drive mechanical engineering excellence
• - Recommend and implement process improvements to increase installation efficiency and quality

Project Execution & Coordination

• - Lead delivery of complex mechanical installation projects with multi-site impact
• - Work cross-functionally with engineering, supply chain, and operations teams
• - Coordinate with the electrical integration lead to ensure proper sequencing - mechanical work must be complete in each zone before electrical teams mobilize
• - Manage relationships with mechanical vendors and partners
• - Provide technical input to leadership for data-driven decision-making
• - Drive achievement of safety, timeline, cost, and quality metrics across assigned zones
• - Participate in daily business reviews with installation progress updates

A day in the life

As a Mechanical Integration Lead, you start your day with the site coordination meeting, reviewing progress against the installation schedule and identifying any material or sequencing issues with your crews. From there, you're on the construction floor - walking zones with your structural steel team verifying header hanger loads, checking that the conveyor prep and placement crew has the right sections staged, and ensuring the connections team is properly aligning and torquing hardware. You troubleshoot rigging challenges, coordinate with the Site Operations Leader on material deliveries, and validate that mechanical QC checks are passed before handing zones off to the electrical team. You close out by updating job plans, flagging risks for the daily business review, and planning tomorrow's crew assignments.

Basic Qualifications:

• - Experience in engineering including a supervisory role managing people - 5+ years of industrial engineer, operations engineer, manufacturing engineer, or project engineer in a manufacturing en
