Description

Amazon Intermodal (AZIM) is building systems and capabilities to ensure that we deliver our customers’ freight, no matter how large or small, as quickly, accurately, and cost effectively as possible. To meet this goal, we are continually striving to innovate and provide best-in-class service levels while meeting our cost management and business goals.

The Senior Product Manager will contribute the mid and long-term strategy for the optimization of AZIM's execution automation. While responsible for systematic disruption management, rescheduling and ETA accuracy, this individual will work cross-functionally with stakeholders across Middle Mile Supply and Route Optimization to identify and remove manual dependencies and processes used today to execute AZIM shipments and delight customers.

This individual will manage execution optimization across 86 rail ramps operated by 4 unique railroads in NA. Each rail ramp has distinctive attributes including operating hours, load type processing restrictions, chassis ownership and management, as well as capacity limitations. The ability to utilize data to solve complex business use cases is a must.

The Sr. Product Manager will establish a realistic and actionable execution glidepath and guide cross-functional teams towards executing and supporting that vision. They are accountable for developing mechanisms to identify manual, operational work streams which need to be automated to create "hands-off of the wheel" execution. They are expected to spend the majority of their time building the automated approach to action and resolve execution defects which are both Amazon and non-Amazon controllable.
