Transform the Future of Delivery

Imagine building the supply chain that will deliver packages to customers in under an hour—by drone. Prime Air is making this vision real, and we need an exceptional supply chain leader to scale it globally.
You will own the end-to-end supply chain strategy for Prime Air's revolutionary drone delivery system. This means leading the teams, mechanisms, and supplier partnerships that enable us to deploy and scale autonomous delivery across the US and Europe. You will work at the intersection of aerospace innovation, high-volume manufacturing, and customer obsession—solving supply chain challenges that have never been solved before.

Why This Role Matters

Prime Air is scaling from pilot to production. The supply chain you build will directly enable or constrain our ability to delight customers with ultra-fast delivery. Your decisions on supplier strategy, inventory positioning, and operational readiness will impact millions of deliveries and define how quickly we can grow.
This is a rare opportunity to build something from the ground up—with Amazon's resources, customer base, and innovation culture behind you.
