Program Manager, Amazon Flex

At Amazon we are building an excellent last mile operation in India, significantly complimented by Amazon Flex. Amazon Flex works directly with independent contractors (IC) – called delivery partners (DP) – to make deliveries to our customers. With Amazon Flex, partners are their own bosses - they can build their own schedules and choose from different types of opportunities (scheduled-ahead blocks, instant offers), all while making great earnings. Amazon Flex is powered by a mobile app,that works in concert with our advanced systems, allowing partners to sign in, grab an offer for a time, check out a map of the location, and more. You will be a part of the central team working on turning a billion dollar idea into reality
