What You'll Do

This role supports Amazon's worldwide quality program for Softline categories. You will ensure all new products meet APB quality standards prior to launch and drive them to become customer-loved products within the first 12 months post-launch through customer feedback analysis, quality gap identification, and rapid corrective actions. You will also own garment care instruction management, engineering change control, the Andon Cord process, and end-to-end product quality for non-apparel categories.

Drive product excellence and customer love through data-driven approaches - identifying quality trends, predicting potential issues, and implementing preventive measures across supplier networks. Leverage AI-powered analytics to deliver actionable recommendations that accelerate quality improvement and elevate the customer experience.

Design and operate scalable quality management programs with best-in-class processes and systems that drive continual improvement across business models. Translate complex technical, quality, and process requirements into clear, compelling insights for non-technical stakeholders through data visualization and storytelling.
