The right candidate will possess a strong program management background, will have demonstrated experience leading medium to large projects, and will have a well-rounded technical background in current web technologies. You will be able to thrive and succeed in an entrepreneurial environment, and not be hindered by ambiguity or competing priorities.

A day in the life
As a TPM, you will anticipate bottlenecks, provide escalation management, anticipate and make tradeoffs, and balance the business needs versus technical constraints. An ability to take large, complex projects and break them down into manageable pieces, develop functional specifications, then deliver them in a successful and timely manner is expected. High judgment, negotiation skills, ability to influence, analytical talent and leadership are essential to success in this role.
About the team
Relay Yard & Fleet Tech builds the software, hardware, and AI that make Amazon's trucking operations visible, safe, and automated — from the moment an asset enters a yard to every mile it runs on the road. Relay Yard Automation (RYA) runs and secures Amazon's middle-mile yards worldwide, anchored by Relay Yard Control — a LiDAR and computer-vision digital twin for real-time yard safety and tracking — and the LiDAR Human Intrusion System. Relay Fleet Tech (RFT) makes Amazon's fleet visible and maintainable across Middle Mile and Last Mile, owning next-generation trailer telematics hardware, the fleet-maintenance platform, asset tracking and location intelligence, and the geospatial services hundreds of downstream systems depend on. Together, the team turns raw sensor signals into decisions that move freight and lays the foundation for autonomous yard and fleet operations.
