Senior Industrial Design Engineer, OneMHS, OneMHS

About the role

Amazon’s One Material Handling System (OMHS) team is seeking a Senior Industrial Design Engineer (IDE III) to serve as the design authority for complete facility material handling systems.

Responsibilities

• Partner with WWDE, Electrical Engineering, I&D installation teams, and service provider engineering partners to serve as the design authority for material handling system implementations.
• Provide technical design leadership for the end-to-end Firm Engineering (FE) package for specific project(s) across OMHS technology domains (Matrix Storage, Advanced Material Transport & Sortation, and Site Design Engineering).
• Own the full Firm Engineering package from concept through construction-ready documentation, resolving all integration challenges across mechanical, electrical, controls, and structural disciplines.
• Partition design work so that junior IDE team members can work in parallel on sub-systems while maintaining architectural coherence and leading the integration of their outputs into a unified site design.
• Serve as the primary technical interface with WWDE, Electrical Engineering, I&D installation teams, and service provider engineering partners for your assigned projects.
• Lead design reviews with cross-functional stakeholders and translate business requirements into actionable engineering specifications that accommodate both Amazon standards and site-specific constraints.
• Drive design standardization—taking lessons from each site to improve templates and reduce engineering hours for subsequent projects.
• Contribute to product roadmap decisions for OMHS technologies and stay current on MHE industry trends, evaluating which technologies are appropriate for Amazon's scale.
• Mentor IDE IIs and provide technical assessments for promotions.
• Leverage intelligent design tooling (CADalyst) and engineering documentation standards to deliver validated, standards-compliant design packages.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering or a foreign equivalent with 7+ years of experience in MHE system design, industrial engineering, or systems integration.
• Experience designing full-site material handling systems at construction-ready level of detail (LOD 300–400).
• Experience in management of engineering design projects with cross-discipline coordination.
• Experience using CAD software (AutoCAD, Revit, SolidWorks, or CREO) and engineering analysis tools.
