Description
About Operations Technology Solutions
Operations is at the heart of Amazon’s business.

We are known for our speed, accuracy, and exceptional service.

Our buildings deliver tens of thousands of products to hundreds of countries worldwide, every day.

Operations Technology Solutions provides nonstop global IT support to Amazon Operations as a vital piece to the puzzle.

We are looking for self-motivated individuals to take on new challenges and motivate teams in fostering solutions to the hurdles we face.

Together, we take ownership for what we do — whether supporting IT infrastructure, developing new technology inhouse, launching a new Amazon Operations facility, or delighting our customers by delivering packages directly to them.

About The Role
As an IT Support Engineer I, you will use your knowledge and specialized skills to implement technical solutions and provide high quality support for computer hardware, operating systems, or enterprise application software across sites in a defined geographical area.

You are able to determine when it is appropriate to deviate from a standard practice to accomplish the desired result.

You can troubleshoot and solve straightforward problems that do not have defined SOPs.

What Do We Offer?
Amazon offers competitive compensation packages including comprehensive healthcare benefits starting on Day 1, matching 401(k) program, and up to 20 weeks of paid parental leave.

But wait there’s more: we are a casual dress code at each of our locations (jeans, t-shirts, safety shoes and at times a neon safety vest will be your daily outfit).
