Are you strong in network automation? then this might be a great opportunity for you.
Join Amazon's Network Access Technology team and build automation that keeps the world's largest enterprise wireless network running smoothly and healing itself. You'll design and deploy next-generation access infrastructure across thousands of global sites, solving complex problems at massive scale while your work directly enables every package Amazon delivers.
Your primary focus is building automation that makes our global wireless network self-sufficient and resilient. You'll analyze patterns across thousands of sites, develop workflows that resolve issues without human intervention, and validate new hardware before it reaches production environments.
You partner with firmware, field operations, and infrastructure engineers—pressure-testing designs and influencing decisions through data-driven insights. You'll mentor newer engineers, conduct technical reviews, and occasionally visit sites for hands-on validation and troubleshooting.
No two weeks look the same, but the constant is this: you're solving complex problems at unprecedented scale, and your work directly impacts the reliability of our fulfillment network worldwide.
Key job responsibilities
- Design and Deploy Network Solutions: Lead the design, development, and deployment of network access solutions spanning wireless (Wi-Fi 5/6/6E/7), wired (802.1X, NAC), and emerging network access technologies across Amazon's global fulfillment network.
- Own End-to-End Project Delivery: Take ownership of complex, multi-milestone network engineering projects from requirements gathering through deployment and validation, ensuring alignment with internal processes and stakeholder expectations.
- Build Automation and Tooling: Develop and enhance automation frameworks for network configuration, compliance validation, and zero-touch deployment pipelines that reduce manual effort and improve consistency.
- Enable Self-Healing Operations: Contribute to our automation platform by developing automated remediation workflows, anomaly detection models, and predictive maintenance capabilities for wireless infrastructure.
- Drive Cross-Team Collaboration: Partner with engineering, field operations, network operations, and program management teams to develop solutions that balance performance, cost, and operational simplicity while validating new device types and configurations.
About the team
We own the design, planning, deployment, and support of the largest wireless and wired access network in the world. We operate at an unprecedented scale—assisting fulfillment, sortation, and delivery sites globally. Our team manages access interconnection that ensures every Amazon associate, robot, and IoT device stays reliably linked to power Amazon's fulfillment promise.
We're focused on transforming network engineering and operations through AI-driven automation, self-healing infrastructure, and next-generation access technologies. We don't just maintain reachability—we architect the network that enables Amazon to deliver for customers worldwide. You'll be part of a team that values operational excellence, continuous improvement, and collective problem-solving.

Amazon runs the largest online store in the United States and rents cloud computing to businesses and governments through Amazon Web Services. AWS pioneered renting computing power over the internet, and Amazon built its own delivery network to get orders to customers quickly. Shoppers buy from Amazon and from independent sellers on its store, and Prime members pay a subscription for fast free shipping, streaming video and music, and other perks. AWS rents out computing power, storage, databases, and AI tools so companies can run software without owning servers, and Amazon also makes Kindle e-readers and Echo speakers with the Alexa assistant. Jeff Bezos founded Amazon in 1994, and it is based in Seattle, Washington.
