System Development Engineer: OT/IT Data & Manufacturing Integrations

Amazon; Redmond (WA); On-site; USD 129,000 - 175,000; Full time

Job summary

Amazon Leo is seeking a System Development Engineer (SysDE II) to integrate plant-floor assets with MES, build custom manufacturing apps, and deploy applied AI in a satellite manufacturing facility.

You will connect PLCs, SCADA, robots to MES, create dashboards and traceability tools, and develop AI solutions for predictive maintenance and quality inspection, collaborating with control and manufacturing engineers.

Qualifications

• Experience programming with at least one modern language such as Java, C++, or C# including object‑oriented design, or experience in professional, non‑internship software development
• Experience building data pipelines or automated ETL processes
• Experience integrating industrial equipment (PLCs, SCADA, robots, CNC machines) using protocols such as OPC UA, MQTT, or REST APIs
• Familiarity with manufacturing execution systems (MES) and industrial automation concepts

Responsibilities

• Bridge the gap between IT and OT environments by integrating plant‑floor equipment (PLCs, SCADA, robots, CNC machines, torque tools) with enterprise systems such as MES using OPC UA, MQTT, and REST APIs
• Build and maintain real‑time data pipelines that converge OT and IT layers, enabling end‑to‑end production visibility, traceability, and data‑driven decision‑making across the manufacturing stack
• Develop custom manufacturing applications (dashboards, digital work instructions, production monitoring, and quality traceability) tailored to satellite manufacturing operations, serving as the connective tissue between shop‑floor systems and enterprise platforms
• Design, train, and deploy applied AI solutions for predictive maintenance, automated quality inspection, anomaly detection, process optimization, and intelligent chatbots leveraging data from both OT and IT systems to drive actionable insights for Production Operations
