All the while, you’ll exercise good judgement, making sure progress and critical metric targets are worked towards and met.

* You’ll uphold Amazon’s high standards of process quality.
* You’ll maintain inventory accuracy.

* Experience working effectively across cross‑functional teams and partnering well with people at all levels within an organization.
* Experience managing, motivating, and influencing team behaviors.
* Experience demonstrating problem solving and root cause analysis.
