Job Description
DESCRIPTION
Are you inspired by invention? Is problem solving through teamwork in your DNA? We apply advances in robotics and software to solve real-world problems that delight our customers in ways we can't even imagine yet.
Amazon's Robotic Delivery & Packaging Innovation (RDPI) organization is located in the greater Boston area, the epicenter of robotics innovation, with development hubs also in Seattle and Europe. Our diverse teams come from all over the world to design, test, and build our dynamic fleet of robots, manipulation systems, and packaging automation solutions. We design autonomous movement and mobility, artificial intelligence and machine learning, manipulation, simulation, robotic management software, predictive analytics, and much more.
The RDPI Supply Chain organization sources and manufactures a portfolio of robotics and automation technologies and is responsible for designing the supplier base, supporting and recommending the selection of technologies and components, and getting the right solution to the right place at the right time to support our network of global fulfillment and transportation solutions.
The Electromechanical Strategic Sourcing team is looking for a Global Commodity Manager to own tier 1 system level sourcing for the compute and network infrastructure that runs our robotic workcells and stations. The portfolio covers industrial and panel PCs, AI/GPU compute platforms, network switches, industrial server racks and UPS, touchscreen displays and projectors, and fixed and handheld barcode scanners. you will collaborate with other category managers supporting Tier 2 components (e.g. processors, GPUs, memory, SSDs and switch silicon). You will work closely with them so that their component strategies and allocations become solid supply plans with our system suppliers. You will also work with the network security organization on network device selection.
The ideal candidate for this position will be a self-managed and driven sourcing strategist with hands-on experience in industrial and panel PCs, AI/GPU compute platforms, network switches, industrial server racks and UPS, touchscreen displays, and barcode scanners. You should have proven ability to engage in Value Analysis and Value Engineering (VAVE) and DFx (Design for Excellence) exercises with suppliers, development and manufacturing engineering teams, provide independent technical feedback to design groups, and support design decisions. Experience mapping and aligning compute and network technology roadmaps, creating sourcing strategies, and the business acumen to support engineering teams in applying reliable, scalable compute and network solutions through a strong supplier base without capacity constraints, while achieving SKU standardization, harmonization, and cost reduction goals is essential.
The Global Category Manager has an important role in ensuring their respective categories and suppliers meet the technical and commercial specifications necessary for RDPI to satisfy its internal Manufacturing Operations, Supplier Quality, Supply Chain, and Hardware Engineering customers.

Mid Level Mechanical Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get a mid level mechanical manager job?
Position your experience around ownership, not just participation. Highlight projects you led from scope to delivery, problems you diagnosed independently, and any coordination you did across engineering, operations, or vendors. Applications that show concrete outcomes, such as improved system reliability or reduced downtime, stand out far more than those that list tools or responsibilities without context.
Which companies hire mid level mechanical managers?
Companies hiring mid level mechanical managers right now include Jobot, Walmart, and Oracle, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. At this level, hiring tends to come from manufacturers, infrastructure operators, and industrial services firms that need engineers who can run projects with limited supervision rather than needing close day-to-day guidance.
Are there remote mid level mechanical manager jobs?
Yes, though most mechanical manager roles remain site-dependent by nature. About 18% of mid level mechanical manager openings are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, and those tend to concentrate in project management, standards development, or technical program coordination rather than hands-on plant or equipment roles. Filtering by work setting on Migrate Mate will show what is currently available.
How do I move up to a mid level mechanical manager role?
The jump from entry level to mid level comes from accumulated ownership, not just time served. Focus on taking on projects where you are accountable for outcomes, not just contributing to them. Build a record of solving problems independently, coordinating across teams, and improving processes in measurable ways. Engineers who can point to decisions they made, and results those decisions produced, are the ones who earn mid level consideration.
Which industries hire the most mid level mechanical managers?
Mid Level mechanical manager roles concentrate in Staffing & Recruiting, Retail, and Consulting & Professional Services, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. These sectors drive hiring at this level because they run complex equipment, infrastructure, or manufacturing systems that require experienced engineers who can manage projects and troubleshoot independently rather than relying on senior oversight for every decision.
