On the Worldwide Returns & ReCommerce team (WW R&R), we aspire to zero: zero cost of returns, zero waste, and zero defects.

Every year, Amazon processes and removes hundreds of millions of damaged and overstock items from its fulfillment centers and reverse fulfills these items to Sellers, Vendors, Liquidators, Charities, and Recyclers. Our team delivers products, features, and programs that reduce removal costs, improve removal performance, eradicate defects, and reduce warehouse fullness.

In this role, you will own a product and program roadmap to drive improved cost, performance, quality, customer experience, and capacity. You will work directly with software developers, program managers, as well as operations, transportation, accounting, tax, and legal partners to author requirements documents. This is an exciting opportunity for someone entrepreneurial, customer-obsessed, and comfortable with ambiguity to make a direct and measurable impact.
