Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) is the Amazon service for world-wide sellers that offers access to Amazon’s vast distribution network as a service. Similar to how AWS provides infrastructure as a service, FBA allows sellers to only pay for what they use, creating a seamless experience to leverage our world-class infrastructure. Sellers, from Fortune 50 companies to hundreds of thousands of small businesses and entrepreneurs, in 135 countries worldwide, rely upon our world-leading technology to grow and thrive on Amazon’s Marketplaces.

As a leader within FBA, you will provide both strategic and tactical oversight to build the features and functionality required to have the best in class offering for sellers. This leader will create mechanisms to drive optimal seller behavior for FBA inventory management, reducing total supply chain costs and making it easier for sellers to get their inventory close to customers, delivering more items with a Prime delivery promise.
