Job Description
DescriptionAmazon Web Services (AWS) is seeking a talented and self-motivated Warehousing & Transportation Environmental Program Manager to support AWS Manufacturing, Test, and Operations (MOTO) facilities. The successful candidate will join the AWS Environmental team — an expanding and dynamic team that is critical to enabling AWS's growth around the world, as well as ensuring regulatory compliance and the highest-level environmental performance of AWS's warehousing and transportation operations. This role sits within the MOTO Environmental organization and owns the Warehousing and Transportation Operations environmental compliance portfolio — a standalone pillar covering Receiving/Distribution Centers (RDCs), Multi-Function Centers (MFCs), and DC/FC facilities (DCFCs) across AMER. This is a new high-impact, ground-floor opportunity to build programs and establish compliance infrastructure from scratch. You will collaborate with people across AWS to help us deliver the highest standards of environmental performance for our warehousing and logistics facilities and our customers, and you will experience an inclusive culture that welcomes bold ideas and empowers you to own them to completion. A critical component of this role is supporting infrastructure development through environmental programs — conducting site selection environmental assessments, supporting greenfield permitting for new facility acquisitions, and ensuring environmental compliance during facility buildout and construction phases. This individual will be a key environmental partner to real estate, facilities, and construction teams as MOTO's warehousing and transportation footprint grows. This role is based in Herndon, VA (IAD Hub), Seattle, WA (SEA Hub), or Salt Lake City, UT (SLC warehouse). Key job responsibilities 1. Leadership & Commitment

Manage spill incident reporting and corrective action for W&T sites; conduct thorough incident investigations and develop appropriate corrective and preventative actions. 7. Waste Management
- Manage waste characterization, manifesting, tracking, and disposal compliance for all W&T facilities in AMER; ensure compliance with RCRA hazardous waste regulations, universal waste rules, and applicable state-equivalent waste programs.
- Oversee environmental compliance for vendors and contractors operating within W&T facilities; develop and enforce environmental performance requirements in contractor agreements and facility leases. Develop environmental lease language standards for W&T facilities; conduct lease compliance inspections and remediate identified environmental obligations with landlords and tenants. 9. Collaboration
- Collaborate with environmental, operations, legal, policy, real estate, and sustainability teams to ensure the W&T environmental program remains relevant, effective, and aligned with evolving regulatory requirements across all
MOTO W&T
facilities. 10. Performance Evaluation- Establish and manage a robust system for monitoring, measuring, and reporting environmental compliance performance across the W&T portfolio.
