About The Position

AWS Cloud Logistics is hiring a senior leader to run our Integrated Logistics team across North and South America. You'll own the end-to-end operational performance of the Logistics Service Providers (LSPs) that move, store, and stage infrastructure for AWS data centers across the Americas — setting the strategy, hitting the numbers, and building the team that gets us there. You'll lead a team of managers and senior individual contributors responsible for daily warehousing and transportation operations, vendor performance, process standardization, and continuous improvement. You'll represent Integrated Logistics to senior AWS Infrastructure Services leaders and partner across Supply Chain, Procurement, Finance, and Data Center Operations to scale capacity ahead of AWS growth. This role might be for you if: You've scaled multi-country logistics operations and have opinions on what "good" looks like at LSPs. You turn ambiguous supply chain problems into structured programs with measurable outcomes. You run vendors hard and fair — tight scorecards, clear escalation paths, real accountability. You build leaders: hire well, coach managers, grow a deep bench. You communicate cleanly from the dock floor to the SVP staff meeting.
