About The Position

This listing is to support various openings across the US and Canada. Join Amazon's Transportation Operations Management (TOM) team as an Associate Learning & Development Trainer and play a crucial role in shaping our transportation network's future. In this DOT-regulated position, you'll combine your transportation expertise with hands-on training delivery to develop our Transportation Associates' (TAs) critical skills. You'll lead classroom, virtual, and yard training sessions, focusing on safety, operational excellence, and compliance. This role offers a unique opportunity to impact one of the world's largest transportation networks while developing your own skills in training delivery and operational support. Your day might begin with a virtual training session on compliance updates or safety protocols. You could then transition to hands-on yard training, demonstrating proper equipment operation and safety practices. In the afternoon, you might conduct over-the-road training, working one-on-one with associates to develop their driving skills. During peak periods, you'll flex between training delivery and supporting critical yard operations. Throughout the day, you'll document training completion, provide coaching, and ensure all activities comply with DOT regulations. The Associate Learning and Development (ALD) Training Delivery Team implements comprehensive transportation training programs through hands-on and classroom instruction. Our team collaborates with cross-organizational stakeholder groups to deliver high-quality, timely training that drives operational success and maintains safety excellence.

We are change champions that challenge the status quo.
