WFS partners with Operations, People Experience and Technology (PXT), Finance, and Technology teams to deliver a world class candidate and associate experience while continuously driving down cost per hire and improving quality of hire through process innovation, operational rigor, and data driven decision making.\n\nThe Process Engineering team within WFS Transformations converts hiring strategies and operational standards into executable engineering solutions that power recruiting workflows end to end, from candidate attraction through Day 1. By optimizing workflows, engineering scalable processes, leveraging artificial intelligence and automation to accelerate cycle times, and validating system interactions between tools, labor, and infrastructure, the team ensures WFS can expand hiring capacity while maintaining compliance, operational efficiency, and service reliability across all global regions.\n\nKey job responsibilities\nAs a Process Engineer on the WFS Transformations team, you will drive variation reduction, cost optimization, AI/automation innovation, and compliance across global recruiting operations. You will engineer processes in both Fulfillment Center manufacturing environments (onboarding stations, badge processing, hiring event layouts) and corporate environments (requisition management, pipeline workflows, vendor coordination, compliance reporting).\n\nKey responsibilities include:\n\nEvaluating metrics across WFS programs and regions to identify improvement opportunities and prioritize against benchmark performance gaps\nAnalyzing end-to-end recruiting workflows (attraction through Day 1) to optimize processes and reduce cost per hire\nDriving AI, machine learning, and automation solutions that eliminate manual effort and enable scaling without proportional headcount growth\nApplying Lean, Six Sigma, value stream mapping, and capacity analysis to drive operational excellence\nConducting tact time studies, process mapping, and resource modeling to identify constraints\nDeveloping SOPs and engineering standards to maintain process control\nTraining and partnering with operational leaders to drive standardization globally\nIntegrating quality engineering (FMEA, control plans, COPQ) into workflow design and conducting process/quality audits\nSupporting program expansions, technology implementations, and QMS maturation\nCollaborating cross-functionally with Engineering, Tech, Learning, and Launch teams\n\nTravel up to 50% to FCs and WFS locations globally.\n\nA day in the life\nWe are looking for a Process Engineer who can collaborate across multiple functional and operational teams globally to establish and improve WFS engineering processes. This role spans both the manufacturing floor and corporate office, requiring an engineer equally comfortable conducting a tact time study at an FC hiring event as they are mapping a corporate requisition approval workflow or building an automation to eliminate a manual reporting process. You will design scalable workflows, diagnose process constraints across hiring programs, identify opportunities to apply AI and automation, prescribe engineering solutions, and guide improvement efforts from concept through execution. You will work across regions partnering with recruiting operations, technology teams, program managers, and vendor partners to drive measurable improvements in how Amazon hires at scale.\nBASIC QUALIFICATIONS\nBachelor's degree, or 2+ years of Amazon (blue badge/FTE) experience\nSix Sigma Green Belt\nExperience in Lean methodologies\nExperience collecting, analyzing, and utilizing data to drive process and system improvements\nExperience implementing repeatable processes and driving automation or standardization\nExperience in automation creation and implementation of automated workflows\nExperience driving AI capabilities and applying artificial intelligence or machine learning to improve operational processes\nExperience engineering processes in both manufacturing and corporate environments\nExperience working cross functionally with tech and non tech teams in a global environment\n5+ years of experience in process engineering, process improvement, or operations management\nPREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS\nSix Sigma Black Belt certification\nExperience using MS Excel, MS Project, AutoCAD and commercial off-the-shelf technologies such as Tableau, SQL, or equivalent\nExperience in high volume recruiting, workforce staffing, or HR operations at scale\nExperience with HR technology platforms (applicant tracking systems, HRIS, workforce management tools)\nExperience with FMEA, control plans, COPQ analysis, or equivalent quality engineering tools\nFamiliarity with Amazon's writing culture and document-driven decision making\n\nAmazon is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of protected veteran status, disability, or other legally protected status.\n\nOur inclusive culture empowers Amazonians to deliver the best results for our customers.
