About the Role
The AWS Cloud Logistics team is looking for a results-oriented Supply Chain Manager to lead warehouse and transportation operations at our Florence, KY hub. You will own the end-to-end flow of materials in and out of the facility - ensuring product moves on time to support manufacturing builds and data center deployments.
A critical component of this role is direct management of our 3PL partner, including performance accountability, KPI governance, and continuous improvement. You'll think strategically about how to optimize processes, reduce cost, and build a more resilient supply chain - while executing tactically to meet daily operational demands.
What You'll Do
Own warehouse and transportation operations, ensuring on-time material flow to manufacturing and data center sites
Manage and hold accountable our 3PL vendor partner - driving KPI adherence, SLA performance, and operational excellence
Identify and eliminate root causes of operational defects through data-driven problem solving
Lead process improvement and standardization initiatives from concept through sustainable implementation
Analyze complex data sets to generate actionable insights that inform strategic decisions
Collaborate with and influence cross-functional teams and external partners to drive alignment and results
This Role Is a Fit If You:
Have deep expertise in both warehouse and transportation operations - you understand the full supply chain, not just one piece
Are a data-driven operator who can:
Turn complex data into clear, actionable business recommendations
Build advanced Excel models and compelling visualizations with confidence
Use metrics to tell a story and drive accountability
Bring proven experience managing 3PL vendors - including performance management, contract governance, and building productive partnerships
Are a self-starter who takes ownership, makes decisions independently, and drives initiatives to completion without waiting to be told what's next
Have a track record of leading continuous improvement projects that deliver measurable, sustainable results
Thrive managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment
Communicate clearly and effectively - whether presenting to leadership, influencing partners, or aligning a team around a plan
