Job description

Senior Program Manager, Middle Mile Fleet Management

Job ID: 10514171 | Amazon.com Services LLC

Amazon's Middle Mile Fleet Management business is scaling fast, and preventive maintenance is central to how we keep it running. If you want to take an established program to the next level of maturity — bringing rigor, data, and mechanisms to a business that already moves at Amazon scale — this is the place for you.

The Middle Mile organization operates and maintains a large, growing fleet of over 100,000 assets — tractors, trailers, box trucks, and hostlers. In this role you will raise the bar on how we maintain those assets, wearing many hats in a highly collaborative environment. This role requires strong leadership, the ability to identify trends with limited data, and the influence to align teams across Amazon to advance our maintenance business.

This Program Manager will own the vision, roadmap, and end-to-end execution of Amazon's Preventive Maintenance (PM) strategy for the Middle Mile fleet. Preventive maintenance is the single largest lever we have to maximize asset uptime, reduce unplanned breakdowns, extend asset life, and lower total cost of ownership across the fleet.
