Amazon's technology supply chain supports a complex and rapidly evolving portfolio of infrastructure, end-user equipment, and technology products across thousands of locations globally. As the business scales, accurate and forward-looking demand planning is critical to ensuring supply availability, managing inventory investment, and delivering predictable outcomes for customers.
We are seeking a Manager, Demand Planning to lead the demand planning capability within Supply Chain Planning. This leader will manage a team responsible for developing and continuously improving demand plans across the existing customer business segments, while establishing scalable mechanisms that can support new businesses, products, and fulfillment models.
The successful candidate will build a demand planning organization that combines strong planning fundamentals with data, technology, and automation. This includes improving forecast quality, integrating customer and business signals, identifying structural sources of forecast error, and partnering with Product, Data, Analytics, and Technology teams to reduce manual planning activity and enable increasingly intelligent forecasting capabilities.
The ideal candidate combines strong supply chain expertise, analytical depth, customer orientation, business judgment, and people leadership. They must be comfortable challenging assumptions, navigating incomplete or conflicting signals, and influencing stakeholders across Supply Chain, Finance, Technology, Operations, Procurement, and customer organizations.
Key job responsibilities
- Lead, coach, and develop a team responsible for demand planning across Launch, KTLO, and Programs.
- Own the end-to-end demand planning mechanism, including forecast creation, validation, consensus, performance measurement, and continuous improvement.
- Translate customer, business, historical, operational, and market signals into credible forward-looking demand plans at the appropriate product, geographic, and time horizons.
- Establish clear accountability for demand inputs and challenge assumptions, overrides, and changes that are not supported by measurable business signals.
- Define and improve forecast accuracy, bias, forecast value-add, and other metrics that distinguish true demand variability from process, data, and system defects.
- Partner with Supply Planning and Enterprise S&OP to surface demand uncertainty, quantify risks, and support scenario and trade-off decisions.
- Develop segmented planning approaches appropriate for different demand patterns, including launches, steady-state replenishment, and program-driven demand.
- Partner with Product, Data, Analytics, and Technology teams to automate forecast ingestion, validation, anomaly detection, and planner workflows.
- Advance the use of statistical forecasting, machine learning, and AI to improve forecast quality and reduce dependence on manual reconciliation and judgment.
- Simplify fragmented demand signals and processes, with a long-term goal of connecting Planning more directly to customer and business demand signals.
- Build scalable mechanisms that support new products, businesses, regions, and planning paradigms without creating parallel planning processes.
- Communicate demand outlook, uncertainty, structural risks, and recommended actions clearly to senior stakeholders.
A day in the life
In this role, you may begin the day reviewing forecast performance and emerging demand changes with your team, determining whether movement reflects a true change in customer demand or a defect in the underlying signal.
You may work with customer teams to challenge assumptions behind a forecast, partner with Supply Planning to understand the implications of a significant demand shift, or support Enterprise S&OP with scenarios where demand uncertainty requires a broader business decision.
You may also spend time with Product or Technology teams improving how demand signals are ingested, automating a repetitive planner workflow, or defining how machine learning and AI can augment planner judgment.
The role balances near-term planning performance with the longer-term objective of creating a scalable, technology-enabled demand planning capability where planners spend less time collecting and reconciling information and more time understanding customers, evaluating uncertainty, and improving the quality of the plan.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Demand Planning Manager
Translate your Australian credentials early
U.S. hiring managers may not recognize Australian university grading systems or three-year bachelor's degrees. Request a credential evaluation from a NACES-approved evaluator before applying so your qualifications map cleanly to the E-3 visa specialty occupation requirement.
Search for employers with LCA filing history
Target companies that have previously filed Labor Condition Applications for supply chain or operations roles. Prior LCA activity signals a finance or HR team that already understands the DOL certification process and won't stall at the sponsorship conversation.
Find verified E-3 sponsorship roles on Migrate Mate
Migrate Mate filters Demand Planning Manager listings by confirmed E-3 sponsorship history, so you're not guessing which employers will engage. Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA and visa paperwork once you have an offer.
Frame sponsorship as a hiring advantage at the offer stage
E-3 sponsorship requires no lottery, no prevailing wage lottery risk, and the employer-side LCA typically certifies within seven business days. Presenting these facts during offer negotiation removes the most common objections before they become deal-breakers.
Align your job title to DOL-recognized occupation codes
The LCA your employer files must reference a Standard Occupational Classification code. Confirm your offered role maps to SOC 13-1081 (Logisticians) or 11-3071 (Transportation, Storage, and Distribution Managers) before signing an offer letter to avoid LCA complications.
Prepare demand planning work samples before interviewing
Consular officers assess whether your role genuinely requires a specialist degree. Bringing documented examples of forecast modeling, inventory optimization projects, or cross-functional planning outputs strengthens the specialty occupation case at your Australian consulate interview.
E-3 Visa Demand Planning Manager: Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I find Demand Planning Manager jobs that offer E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals seeking E-3 sponsorship, with Demand Planning Manager listings filtered by employers who have actively engaged with the E-3 process. Searching general job boards surfaces roles where sponsorship willingness is unconfirmed, which costs time at a critical stage of your job search.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a Demand Planning Manager role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes. The E-3 specialty occupation requirement is satisfied when the role normally requires a bachelor's degree or higher in a directly related field. Demand planning positions typically require degrees in supply chain management, business analytics, operations, or a related discipline. Roles where any general business degree qualifies may face more scrutiny during LCA or consulate review.
How does the E-3 visa compare to H-1B for Demand Planning Manager roles?
The E-3 has a 10,500 annual allocation that has never been fully used, so there is no lottery. H-1B visa requires entering a random selection process with roughly a one-in-three chance of registration. For Demand Planning Managers, E-3 means a qualified offer can proceed directly to LCA filing and a consulate appointment, typically within four to eight weeks of the offer being signed.
Can I change employers or move into a director-level role while on an E-3?
Yes to both, but each requires a new LCA and, in most cases, a new visa stamp if the job duties or employer change materially. Stepping up from Demand Planning Manager to a director title mid-status is not automatic. Your new employer must file a fresh LCA with the DOL before your start date in the new role, and you'll need to attend a consulate appointment if your current stamp is tied to the prior employer.
