Mechanical Integration Lead, OMHS
About the role
Amazon is seeking a Mechanical Integration Lead to drive the successful installation, integration, and deployment of material handling equipment (MHE) across multiple greenfield and brownfield fulfillment center sites. This role provides hands-on mechanical engineering leadership in complex automation environments, ensuring projects meet Amazon's safety, timeline, cost, and quality standards.
Responsibilities
Directly manage and lead mechanical installation crews deploying MHE across North American facilities
Oversee structural header steel installation including hanging steel, prebuilding supports, and anchoring to building structure
Lead conveyor prep and placement operations — rigging, lifting, staging, and setting conveyor sections into final positions on installed supports
Manage conveyor connections and belting crews — ensuring proper mechanical alignment, bed connections, squaring, leveling, and hardware tightening
Direct side guide and netting installation ensuring proper alignment and tension
Manage belt crew operations including belting and lacing installation on aligned conveyor sections
Oversee pneumatic/air systems installation including air connections to conveyor components, pressure testing, and leak verification
Collaborate with the logistics and receiving team to ensure materials are inventoried, staged, and distributed to work zones on schedule
Lead mechanical QC and commissioning activities including alignment verification, hardware inspections, and match-mark verification
Manage conveyor run-in testing, belt tracking verification, and belt tension checks
Verify IOQ checks and ensure all mechanical systems meet specifications before handoff to electrical teams
Ensure proper match-marking of nuts/bolts to verify tightness across all connections
Provide mechanical engineering expertise for automation initiatives across assigned sites
Implement technical solutions and lead project-level decisions within the mechanical scope
Create and maintain technical documentation including work instructions, installation SOPs, and QC checklists
Participate in design reviews and drive mechanical engineering excellence
Recommend and implement process improvements to increase installation efficiency and quality
Lead delivery of complex mechanical installation projects with multi-site impact
Work cross-functionally with engineering, supply chain, and operations teams
Coordinate with the electrical integration lead to ensure proper sequencing — mechanical work must be complete in each zone before electrical teams mobilize
Manage relationships with mechanical vendors and partners
Provide technical input to leadership for data-driven decision-making
Drive achievement of safety, timeline, cost, and quality metrics across assigned zones
Participate in daily business reviews with installation progress updates
