From Amazon's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Amazon Manufacturing Services (AMS) is Amazon's internal advanced manufacturing operation, delivering rapid prototyping and production services to engineering teams across the company. Our manufacturing capabilities span metals fabrication, CNC machining, and additive manufacturing, and we are actively expanding into new service areas to meet growing internal demand.
We take products from concept to finished hardware, enabling Amazon engineering teams to move faster and at lower cost than external sourcing allows. AMS is in a high-growth phase, adding capabilities and service lines, and we are building the commercial engine to match.
Commercial operations at AMS is not a support function. It is the engine that connects our manufacturing capabilities to our customers and drives the growth of the business. The Commercial Operations Manager owns that engine entirely.
You will be the commercial leader for AMS. You set priorities, build the team, own the customer relationship, and drive revenue execution. You decide how orders are sequenced, how customers are served, and how the commercial organization scales. You are the primary point of contact for customers from first quote to final delivery.
AMS has a strong and growing pipeline of manufacturing work across Amazon business lines. The prototyping flywheel is real and it is accelerating. The right commercial leader will build the systems and team to capture that demand, shorten cycle times, and grow the customer base. This role has scope, authority, and room to grow.
