Amazon's North American Surface Transportation Safety & Compliance team (NAST S&C) is hiring a Compliance Analyst for Safety Monitoring. The team measures carrier safety performance against Amazon's standards using FMCSA Safety Measurement System (SMS) data and Amazon's Violation Rate Metrics (VRM), and takes action when a carrier falls below the standard.
This role supports either third-party (3P) carrier monitoring or monitoring of Amazon's own fleet, Transportation Operations Management (TOM); the core work is the same for both. You will run recurring monitoring steps on a fixed schedule, pull and validate data, keep every case record current, and report results. The work is methodical and procedure-driven: each step follows written procedures and fixed thresholds, and every result can trigger an enforcement or safety action, so you will verify the data before it moves. You will report to the Safety Monitoring manager and escalate anything that falls outside the procedure.
Key job responsibilities
- Pull safety data from FMCSA SMS and internal sources on the monthly schedule.
- Validate every record against source data before it goes out, reconciling counts, spot-checking individual records, and documenting each check.
- Maintain SIM and Asana so the current status of every case lives in one place.
- Prepare recurring metrics for business reviews, including suspension and reinstatement counts, exception outcomes, inspection results, and cycle timeliness.
- Maintain procedure documents and recommend process improvements.
- Escalate data discrepancies, new case types, and anything with possible legal exposure.
- Prepare the monthly BASICs and VRM suspension and reinstatement lists against the written thresholds.
- Log carrier exception requests, build each case file against the written criteria, and present cases at the weekly exception review.
- Record every review decision as granted, denied, or pending final review.
- Submit suspension and reinstatement tickets to Carrier Health and confirm they are actioned.
- Send carrier notifications from approved templates once a decision is recorded, answer carrier questions about their status, and route anything outside the templates to your manager.
- Monitor carriers under review each week for new violations, out-of-service events, and safety rating changes.
- Run the same monitoring steps for Amazon's own fleet, tracking roadside inspection results, out-of-service events, violations, and BASICs results for TOM.
- Report trends and open items to TOM safety and operations leaders on a set schedule.
- Flag changes that need attention, such as a rising violation rate or a new out-of-service event, to your manager and TOM safety leaders.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
- 2+ years of professional or military experience
- 1+ years of working with computers and Microsoft Office products and applications experience
- High school or equivalent
- Can lift up to 49 pounds, stand/walk during shifts lasting up to 12 hours, and be able to frequently push, pull, squat, bend, and reach
- Work 40 hours/week, and overtime as required
- Work a flexible schedule/shift/work area, including weekends, nights, and/or holidays
- Are 18 years of age or older
- Experience in data analysis, with the ability to interpret and draw insights from data to inform decision-making processes
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Experience with end-to-end project management
- Experience working cross-functionally with tech and non-tech teams, including operations

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Safety Engineer
Verify your degree maps to the role
U.S. consular officers assess whether your specific degree field supports the Safety Engineer title. A general engineering degree usually passes, but a business or science degree requires documented evidence linking your coursework to occupational safety practice.
Target industries with mandatory safety programs
Construction, oil and gas, manufacturing, and aerospace employers must maintain OSHA-compliant safety programs by law. These industries file LCAs routinely and understand E-3 visa sponsorship obligations, making them faster to move from offer to visa approval than employers new to the process.
Get your credentials assessed before applying
If your Australian bachelor's degree is a three-year program, prepare a credential evaluation confirming U.S. equivalency before your first interview. Consular officers expect this documentation, and having it ready avoids delays after you've already accepted an offer.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for the LCA step
The Labor Condition Application must be DOL-certified before you can attend your consulate appointment. Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA and visa paperwork so your employer doesn't stall at the step most unfamiliar to U.S. hiring teams.
Clarify sponsorship scope during the offer stage
Some employers agree to hire you but assume legal fees transfer to you. Confirm in writing whether your offer includes employer-paid LCA filing and visa support before you resign from your current role or book travel to the U.S.
Search E-3 sponsoring employers through Migrate Mate
Most job searches return roles without filtering for E-3 willingness. Migrate Mate surfaces employers with active E-3 and LCA filing history for Safety Engineer roles, so you spend time on applications with a realistic path to sponsorship rather than cold outreach.
E-3 Visa Safety Engineer: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Safety Engineer jobs with E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is the most direct way to search. It filters employers by E-3 and LCA filing history specifically for Safety Engineer roles, so you're not sifting through listings from companies that have never sponsored an Australian worker. Standard job boards don't surface sponsorship history, which means most applications go to employers who will decline before the process starts.
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 Safety Engineer role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes. Safety Engineer positions typically require a bachelor's degree in engineering, occupational health, or industrial hygiene, which satisfies the specialty occupation standard. The degree must relate directly to the role. If your title is broader, such as EHS Manager, the job duties and degree field still need to align with engineering-level practice for the LCA and consular review to pass.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Safety Engineers?
The E-3 has a 10,500 annual allocation that has never been fully used, so there's no lottery and no random selection. The H-1B visa is capped at 85,000 and oversubscribed every year, meaning most applicants don't get selected regardless of qualifications. For Australian Safety Engineers, the E-3 is a direct path to a U.S. offer without the uncertainty of a lottery cycle.
Can I change employers or roles after arriving on an E-3?
Yes, but each new employer must file a fresh LCA with the DOL and you'll need a new visa stamp or a change of status if you're already in the U.S. You can't simply transfer the existing E-3 to a new employer the way some other visa categories allow. Start the process with your new employer before your current role ends to avoid a gap in status.
