Executive Presence: Leads Director level discussions. Communicates with conviction and brevity. Influences without authority. Writes and speaks in a way that makes complex ideas accessible to senior non-expert audiences.
Problem Solving: Solves complex, cross-functional problems spanning teams and timelines. Creates repeatable frameworks that prevent entire categories of problems from recurring. Is the person others come to when a problem is genuinely hard.
Boundaryless: Co-owns outcomes with partner teams. Build deep trust with stakeholders (Senior Managers) across CS. Drives alignment across competing priorities and organizational boundaries. Operates as a full member of the partner team, not just a vendor of planning services.
Innovative and Experimental: Demonstrates a willingness to experiment and take calculated risks, particularly on reversible (two-way door) decisions. Proactively unblocks teams to test, iterate, and move with speed — challenging legacy boundaries and established norms to drive innovation
Key job responsibilities
Own the development, maintenance, and execution of network capacity plans for internal and outsourced sites, covering short-term (4-week), operational (monthly/quarterly), and long-term (3-year) planning horizons.
Proactively identify and mitigate capacity risks by mapping dependencies across internal sites and Global Outsourcing vendor partners. Communicate risks and mitigation plans to the right stakeholders clearly and with specificity. Coordinate with CS Operations and GO Vendor Management teams to ensure staffing plans are aligned with service level targets and outsourcing strategy.
Support quarterly submissions to CS Finance, providing accurate Year-to-Go (YTG) labor cost projections and revisions versus OP targets.
Independently apply AI tools (e.g., AgentZ, Kiro) to improve planning workflows without prompting, identifying opportunities to increase the speed, quality, and scale of planning outputs. Develop side-of-desk automation for repetitive tasks within your planning workstream, demonstrating measurable productivity improvement.
Build repeatable frameworks that prevent entire categories of planning problems from recurring, becoming the go-to resource when a planning challenge is genuinely hard.
Present analysis and planning recommendations to senior audiences independently, adapting your communication style for technical and non-technical, operational and strategic audiences. Write clear, concise, and compelling narratives for QBRs, MBRs, and planning reviews. Documents must meet Amazon's standard formatting guidelines, with conclusions that tie to the organization's working-backwards framework.
Communicate complex planning ideas in a way that is accessible to senior, non-expert audiences. Align cross-functional stakeholders (Operations, Finance, HR, Training and others) to embed planning inputs into execution and operational decision making.
