Project Manager Jobs in Austin, TX

DESCRIPTION

The Global Energy, Sustainability, and Automation team is seeking an experienced and highly organized Project Manager to lead the deployment of infrastructure technologies across Amazon's fulfillment and logistics network.

The Tech Deployment team serves as a scalable execution function for infrastructure and technology programs across Amazon's operational facilities. The team partners with engineering, operations, construction, technology teams, vendors, and other stakeholders to deploy solutions spanning electrical infrastructure, HVAC and building systems, controls and automation, metering, sensing and location technologies, and other emerging infrastructure technologies.

In this role, you will manage multiple concurrent deployment programs from planning through field execution, validation, and operational handoff. You will translate technical requirements into executable deployment plans, coordinate vendors and internal stakeholders, manage schedule and execution risks, and establish repeatable processes that enable technologies to scale across a large and geographically distributed portfolio.

The successful candidate will have experience delivering complex technical or infrastructure projects and operating effectively in environments with multiple stakeholders, competing priorities, and evolving technical requirements. Experience with electrical systems, HVAC, controls and automation, material handling equipment, sensing technologies, or other building and operational infrastructure is preferred.

This role requires a self-starter who can independently manage multiple projects, identify and resolve execution barriers, and influence stakeholders across organizational boundaries. The candidate must also demonstrate the ability to quickly understand unfamiliar technologies and technical requirements sufficiently to lead their successful deployment.

This is a travel-based role. Travel across North America of up to 50% or more may be required depending on project needs.
