We build the software and services that touch every Amazon customer globally and innovate solutions for logistics supply chain optimization and transportation. If you are a UX Designer with a creative flare problem-solving skills exposure to various technologies such as Machine Learning we want to talk with you.
The UX Designer will support the Senior UX Designer in delivering the visualisation platform integrated view combining robotic floor operations with material handling equipment (MHE) data in a single real-time interface. This role is embedded within the Software Controls and Science (SCS) team and will partner closely with engineers across multiple disciplines to design intuitive operator-facing interfaces for complex automation systems.
This role will play a hands-on part across the full design lifecycle: from user research and discovery through prototyping validation and cross-org design alignment. This is a high-impact engagement on a platform that directly influences how FC operators interact with conveyor networks robotic workcells and industrial control systems at Amazon scale.
