My team strives to increase safety, productivity for Amazon Worldwide Operations through automation. We take a napkin sketch and make it a reality. My role is to drive the strategical initiatives - make an execution plan, business case justification (whether it would make sense for the customer), form a team, timeline, prototype, testing, and take it to production. It is a fun filled challenging environment where I get to work with some brightest minds.
