About this role

Automation Mechanical Engr, Manufacturing Automation Design & Engineering Houston, Texas, USA Amazon Web Services' Hardware Engineering team is looking for experienced professionals to help build the world's premier cloud computing platform. Our Manufacturing Automation Design & Engineering team designs, validates, and deploys automation solutions - robotics, cobots, vision inspection, AI-powered quality systems, and automated assembly workflows - across contract manufacturer sites worldwide. About the Role: You will own the mechanical design IP that every automation cell depends on - fixtures, jigs, end-of-arm tooling, grippers, and custom mechanical interfaces between robots and product components. Every cobot needs tooling. Every station needs fixtures. Every platform changeover needs quick-change adapters. You define the mechanical design architecture and reuse strategy: modular fixture libraries, cross-platform EOAT standards, and design-for-reuse principles that ensure mechanical hardware scales across all platforms and contract manufacturer sites without redesign. You independently lead mechanical design vendors and own the fixture/tooling IP library that is core to AWS's automation replication strategy. Our scope covers all server and rack assembly across all architectures and platforms - compute, AI/ML accelerators, storage, and networking. We design intelligent, predictive-analytics-driven production systems where every station is sensor-driven, AI-optimized, and self-correcting - turning assembly lines into programmable, data-generating platforms that scale capacity without scaling headcount.This role requires the engineer to operate in a fast-paced, multi-platform international manufacturing environment with travel to contract manufacturer sites (up to 25-30% travel anticipated). Key job responsibilities • Define mechanical design architecture: fixture library standards, Tools and Fixture reuse strategy, modular design principles
