Full Job Description
Amazon's Integrated Design Solutions (IDS) team is looking for a Architectural Design Lead to lead a fast-moving, high-visibility program focused on rapid composite design delivery and operational readiness. This is a hands-on role that blends 2D/3D design execution with project and program management - built for someone who can do the work, run the program, and keep cross-functional teams aligned all at once.

You'll collaborate closely with design teams across the organization, driving composite delivery from kickoff to completion with speed and precision. If you think quickly, communicate clearly under pressure, and take pride in delivering high-quality design work on a tight timeline - this role was made for you.

Key job responsibilities
• Own end-to-end composite design delivery for a high-impact program, producing accurate 2D/3D designs using AutoCAD and Revit
• Manage project and program timelines, tracking deliverables, surfacing risks early, and keeping stakeholders informed
• Collaborate closely and continuously with design teams to align on scope, resolve blockers, and accelerate delivery
• Translate operational requirements into composite designs that meet construction and launch standards
• Support clash detection and under-the-roof design validation to reduce rework and protect capital investment
• Communicate proactively with business partners to maintain visibility on program status and design decisions
• Adapt quickly as project requirements evolve, maintaining quality without sacrificing speed

A day in the life

Your day is split between doing and managing. In the morning, you might be heads-down in Revit working through a composite, and by afternoon you're in a review with design partners, tracking open items and making sure nothing is blocking delivery. You're the person who knows where every deliverable stands, what's at risk, and what needs to happen next.

You communicate clearly, make quick decisions, and bring people with you. When the timeline tightens - and it will - you stay focused, stay collaborative, and find a way through.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

- Bachelor's degree in Architecture, Construction Management, Engineering, or a related field

- Experience that includes strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and effective communication abilities

- Experience with AutoCAD, Revit, Bluebeam, and MS Office Suite

- 5+ years of technical , design and architecture experience managing multiple projects and priorities across teams in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

- Master's degree in Engineering (any domain) or foreign equivalent, Operations, Business Administration, or a related field

- Experience in delivering design solutions for projects of large scope and complexity

- Experience in stakeholder management, dealing with multiple stakeholders at varied levels of the organization

- Experience building processes, project management, and schedules

- Experience in clash detection and Navisworks.
