Our maintenance and reliability engineering (RME) team ensures our systems run at full capacity. We are characterized by our strong technical aptitude and excellent teamwork skills, led by highly experienced managers. Our work includes maintenance, repair, and troubleshooting of equipment across our global network of distribution centers. The team includes a range of management profiles responsible for overseeing the development of fascinating technologies, some of which exist only at Amazon.

Our team handles most of Amazon's technical aspects, performing tasks ranging from installing automated packaging systems to overseeing general site maintenance or repairing key distribution equipment. This includes adapting buildings to current legislation so that all staff are safe and our facilities operate as efficiently as possible. The RME team, as in other Amazon departments, offers numerous opportunities for professional growth.
