Pioneering the Future of Global E-Commerce Logistics

At Amazon, our mission is to be Earth's most customer-centric company, and our fulfillment centers are the massive, beating heart of our global supply chain that makes this mission a reality. Every single day, millions of customers rely on Amazon to deliver their essential household goods, life-saving medical supplies, and joyful gifts with unprecedented speed and reliability. When you step into a role within our fulfillment operations, you are not just taking a warehouse job; you are joining a technological powerhouse that utilizes cutting-edge robotics, advanced machine learning, and unparalleled logistical infrastructure. We are actively seeking dedicated, detail-oriented individuals who possess a strong Bias for Action and a deep sense of Ownership to join our inbound operations team. In this environment, you will be empowered to innovate, surrounded by a culture that prioritizes your safety, well-being, and long-term career growth. From day one, you will be an integral part of the Amazon family, driving the magic of the supply chain forward.

About the Role: The Architect of Inventory

As an Amazon Fulfillment Center Warehouse Stower, you serve as the critical first touchpoint for all new inventory entering our state-of-the-art facilities. You are the architect of our inventory ecosystem. Working at a specialized Universal Station on the Amazon Robotics (AR) floor, your primary objective is to receive inbound merchandise and strategically stow it into the mobile robotic pods that navigate the facility. This role is fundamental to the entire downstream picking and packing process; if an item is stowed incorrectly, it cannot be picked efficiently, directly impacting the customer promise. You will utilize advanced handheld RF scanners and touch-screen terminals to track every single movement of inventory, ensuring our digital warehouse management systems perfectly mirror our physical stock. This position demands a high degree of focus, spatial awareness, and a relentless commitment to Amazon's "Insist on the Highest Standards" leadership principle.

A Day in the Life of an Amazon Stower

Your shift begins with a daily Start of Shift (SOS) meeting, where your Area Manager will review the previous day's success metrics, highlight critical safety protocols, and outline the inbound volume expectations for the current shift. Following a guided team stretching session designed by our WorkingWell ergonomics experts, you will proceed to your designated stow station. Throughout the 10 to 12-hour shift, automated conveyors will deliver totes full of unsorted merchandise directly to your workspace. At the press of a button, an Amazon Robotics pod will autonomously navigate to your station. You will scan an item, visually assess the available bin space within the pod, and utilize strict "Stow Etiquette" to place the item securely. You will be constantly engaged in a high-energy, fast-paced rhythm, solving spatial puzzles to maximize bin utilization while ensuring no items overhang or create safety hazards for the moving robots. The environment is vibrant, dynamic, and incredibly structured.

Comprehensive and Detailed Responsibilities

• Strategic Inventory Integration: Receive mixed totes of inbound merchandise from the decant lines and expertly stow them into multi-level robotic shelving units, meticulously calculating spatial optimization to maximize the facility's overall storage capacity.
• Technological Operations & Tracking: Utilize highly sophisticated proprietary software via touch-screen monitors and wearable barcode scanners to log the exact location of every product, ensuring 100% virtual-to-physical inventory accuracy across millions of data points.
• Quality Assurance & Inspection: Conduct rapid, continuous visual inspections of all incoming goods. You must immediately identify, isolate, and report any damaged, leaking, or incorrectly barcoded products before they enter the active picking ecosystem, thereby protecting the end-customer experience.
• Strict Safety Adherence: Maintain a flawlessly pristine workspace. You are required to strictly follow all Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and internal Amazon safety guidelines. This includes executing proper ergonomic lifting techniques, utilizing mandatory Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) such as composite-toe safety shoes, and keeping the robotics floor boundary entirely clear of debris.
• Operational Pace & Metrics: Maintain a consistent, steady operational pace (Takt time) to meet facility-wide inbound receiving metrics, ensuring the building has sufficient inventory depth to satisfy massive spikes in customer demand.

The benefits starting on day one are life-changing, and the leadership team genuinely listens to our feedback through the Voice of the Associate boards.
