Lab Engineer II, OneMHS

Amazon•Hebron, KY

About The Position

We are seeking a Lab Engineer II with strong mechanical design expertise to join our testing laboratory. The ideal candidate will independently design and execute complex test procedures, maintain sophisticated laboratory equipment, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve product quality and reliability. Amazon installs a significant quantity of new buildings every year. The historical model has been to allow each integrator to use their own equipment, controls, subsystems, and methodologies. While that has allowed Amazon to be successful to this point, the variability between buildings has proven difficult to support and scale. One MHS’ charge is to build partnerships to focus on consistency and scalability across our network of the future. We will be partnering with key suppliers to help them scale up their manufacturing capabilities to keep up with our needs, as well as refining their designs to drive innovation and operational uptime and better meet the specific needs of Amazon’s operational environment.
