Electrical Installation Lead- Devices & Controls, OMHS

About the role

Amazon is seeking an Electrical Installation Lead - Low Voltage Devices & Controls to drive the successful installation, configuration, and validation of field devices and low-voltage control systems for automation and material handling equipment across multiple greenfield and brownfield fulfillment center sites. This role provides field-based technical leadership focused specifically on low-voltage device installation, sensor deployment, VFD configuration, E-stop systems, fieldbus cabling, and device commissioning readiness. The Electrical Installation Lead - Low Voltage Devices & Controls will directly manage installation crews responsible for all field device mounting, wiring, configuration, and validation on MHE systems. This includes photo eyes, proximity sensors, encoders, limit switches, E-stop devices, pull cords, safety devices, scanners, VFDs, I/O blocks, zone controllers, actuators, operator stations, stack lights, and industrial communication/fieldbus cabling (Ethernet/IP, Profinet, EtherCAT, AS-i). You will ensure all devices are installed correctly, parameters are set accurately, and systems are ready for controls commissioning and system energization. This role reports to the Site Deployment Manager and follows the Power Distribution & Infrastructure lead through each zone - your team mobilizes once conduit, panels, and heavy wire are in place. You are the last electrical installation step before controls commissioning, making precision, attention to detail, and commissioning readiness the defining measures of success.
