About The Position

Amazon's Global Supply Chain and Transportation Procurement (GSCTP) organization is looking for a Technical Program Manager to lead vendor onboarding automation and integration programs across North American transportation. In this role, you will own the technical strategy for how Amazon connects with its transportation partners, designing and deploying AI-powered tools, driving system integrations, and eliminating manual processes at scale. This is a high-impact role where your work directly fuels Amazon's flywheel: by reducing procurement cycle times and automating vendor connectivity, you lower our cost structure, which enables lower prices, which improves customer experience, which drives growth. You'll operate with significant autonomy, partnering with engineering teams, procurement leaders, and operations stakeholders to deliver measurable efficiency gains against GSCTP's goal of 50% process automation. If you're excited about building intelligent automation from scratch, leading programs that span multiple teams, and seeing your work reflected in Amazon's ability to deliver faster and more affordably, we'd love to talk.
