Join us at Amazon, where the future of automation is being written today. Whether you're debugging a robotic system, optimizing conveyor performance, or collaborating on the next big innovation in automation, every day brings new challenges and exciting opportunities to push technological boundaries. As an Automation Apprentice on our RME team, you'll work hands-on with cutting-edge technology alongside industry experts who are revolutionising automation. Join a dynamic team that goes beyond maintenance to innovate and improve automated systems daily. Be part of reimagining the future of automation while learning from the best in the field. "Your day-to-day responsibilities will include supporting maintenance and fault-finding on automated systems and robotics, using diagnostic tools to keep conveyors and sortation equipment running smoothly, planning preventative maintenance and safety checks, and collaborating with engineers to develop new process improvements and energy-efficient solutions. Throughout your apprenticeship, you'll gain both theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience with: • Advanced robotics systems and controls • Industrial automation programming • Smart sensor technology and IoT integration • Predictive maintenance systems • Data analytics and performance optimization • Safety systems for human-robot collaboration • Industry 4.0 technologies • Machine learning applications in automation Within this 48 month programme, you will work towards the Level 6 Control Technical Support Apprenticeship, combining practical, on-the-job experience with industry-recognised study. Your first 12 months will be a full-time residential programme based either at one of our external training provider facilities or at our own world-class Amazon training centres - reflecting our significant investment in developing state-of-the-art facilities for the next generation of engineers. If you live outside of a commutable distance, accommodation will be provided during term time for these first 12 months, and travel expenses will be supported. In later years you will have on-the-job training working towards a BSc in Controls and Automation Engineering and an HNC/D in Electrical/Controls Engineering. You'll support our 24/7 operation in shift covering days, nights and weekends in patterns that reflect the real-world schedules of engineers who keep Amazon operating around the clock." After completing your apprenticeship, you’ll be qualified to apply for roles such as Automation Engineer, Controls Technician, or RME Engineer in our Reliability, Maintenance and Engineering (RME) teams.
