About the position As an Amazon Fulfillment Center Warehouse Associate, you will be an integral part of the team responsible for preparing customer orders. This role is fast-paced and physical, taking place in various areas of the warehouse, including merchandise handling, make-on-demand services, customer returns, Prime Now, and general fulfillment. Your primary responsibilities will include selecting, packing, and shipping orders, sometimes for our super-fast delivery service that promises delivery in two hours or less. You will be expected to receive and put away inventory, prepare customer orders for shipment, and load boxes into trucks. Additionally, you will utilize scanners to read barcodes on products and follow prompts on screens to complete tasks efficiently. Troubleshooting any issues that arise and ensuring that products meet quality standards will also be part of your daily duties. In this role, you will operate powered industrial trucks (PIT), such as forklifts or pallet drivers, and may work at heights of up to 40 feet. Training and certification for equipment operation will be provided at no cost to you. Physical requirements include the ability to lift up to 49 pounds, push utility carts weighing up to 60 pounds, and perform various movements such as standing, walking, pushing, pulling, squatting, bending, and reaching throughout your shifts. You may also need to navigate stairs and work on a mezzanine at heights of up to 40 feet, depending on the specific tasks assigned to you. Adherence to strict safety, quality, and fulfillment production standards is essential in this role. Working at an Amazon Fulfillment Center comes with its unique environment. Safety is a top priority, and protective gear is provided to all associates. You will be surrounded by moving machines, including order pickers, stand-up forklifts, turret trucks, and mobile carts. The work environment can vary in temperature, ranging from 60?F to 90?F, and on particularly hot days, it may exceed 90?F in certain areas. Noise levels can also be high, and hearing protection is available if needed.
