You will own and build systems that are responsible for
Rack Building & Rack Landing — orchestrating the end-to-end lifecycle from plan to physical delivery
Plan-to-Execution Convergence — proactively identifying deviations between planned and actual execution, surfacing root causes, and driving corrective actions
Fulfillment Explainability — building intelligent systems that explain "why" plans miss targets, enabling planners and operators to take timely, informed action
These are high-impact, globally-scoped systems where reliability and accuracy directly affect AWS's ability to meet customer demand. You will work on challenging distributed systems problems at massive scale, leveraging modern AWS-native architectures.
About the team
The Fulfillment Planning and Execution team within Infrastructure Supply Chain Automation builds intelligent systems that plan and execute to AWS global compute need and provide visibility, explainability, and actionable insights across AWS's fulfillment supply chain. We handle compute needs from every major internal AWS department — our systems are mission-critical and operate at global scale. We are a fast-moving team that values ownership, bias for action, and delivering results that directly impact AWS's ability to scale for customers worldwide.
