Advanced Manufacturing Engineer

JOB SUMMARY: Design and implement world-class manufacturing solutions that transition cutting-edge robotics products from concept to production at scale, driving quality excellence across global supply chains.

KEY JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

Apply Design for X (DFX) principles to transition autonomous robotic solutions and mechatronic systems from design to production

Develop and qualify suppliers while managing product lifecycle changes across complex global supply chains

Lead cross-functional quality improvement projects and drive technical root cause analysis for supplier defects

Design and develop manufacturing test solutions for consumer electronics and robotics systems

Implement best-in-class manufacturing systems for scalability, focusing on gearbox assembly, stator winding, rotor manufacturing, and motor integration

Collaborate with design teams globally to influence product designs and ensure manufacturability at scale

As an Advanced Manufacturing Engineer, you'll work at the intersection of innovation and production, transforming ambitious robotics designs into manufacturable products. You'll partner with cross-functional teams across Amazon globally, from mechanical and electrical engineers to supply chain partners, ensuring our next-generation robotics systems meet the highest quality standards.
Your day might include:
Reviewing design specifications with product teams and providing DFX feedback to optimize manufacturability
Conducting supplier assessments and capability studies at contract manufacturer facilities
Leading failure analysis investigations and implementing corrective actions for quality issues
Developing test fixtures and validation protocols for new product introductions
Collaborating with international teams across Seattle, Asia, and Europe on NPI activities
You'll navigate ambiguous technical challenges in a fast-paced, iterative environment, applying state-of-the-art technologies to solve extreme-scale problems. This role requires occasional travel to development sites and supplier locations for hands-on problem solving.
