Senior Program Manager, External Fulfillment
Job Summary
We are looking for a Senior Program Manager to join the External Fulfillment (EF) Planning Team within Amazon Japans Operations Division a team that sits at the intersection of strategy execution and innovation.
What is EF
External Fulfillment operates fulfillment centers run by 3PL partners and vendors not Amazons own FCs. These sites specialize in large heavy and temperature-sensitive products that demand unique logistics solutions. By scaling this network the EF team unlocks product selection that customers never thought they could get delivered fast and delivers it at speeds that redefine expectations.
What youll own:
You will own the end-to-end lifecycle of EF sites launching new logistics centers and managing them as a business after go-live. This isnt project management that ends at launch; you build it then you run it.
Why this role is special:
Few positions offer this vantage point. Youll see the entire business landscape from site development to operational readiness to ongoing performance and translate that view into action. Youll architect logistics centers with capabilities that dont exist yet enabling Amazon to enter new product categories and business models. If you want to leave a visible lasting mark on how millions of customers receive their orders this is the role.
We welcome bold thinkers from diverse industries. Whether your background is in logistics consulting manufacturing or something entirely different if you thrive on complexity and want to build at scale we want to hear from you.
