Amazon XL Warehouse Associate ID - 12491
Description
Amazon XL Warehouse Associate
Job Overview
You’ll be part of the Amazon warehouse team that handles the big stuff – those unique customer orders that weigh over 50 pounds: big screen TVs, furniture, appliances, and more
You’ll be trained on how to use technology to handle these heavy bulk items
Even if you haven’t been a “power” player before, that won’t limit you from gaining valuable job experience because – depending on the site – you may be trained to be a heavy equipment operator, using powered industrial trucks (PIT) such as a forklift or pallet driver
Many shifts will have you at the helm of our power equipment getting orders ready for customers, but other times you’ll be on the warehouse floor of our fulfillment centers, sortation centers, or delivery stations working with your teammates, tackling those hands-on items that need expert handling before they are sent along their delivery route
Duties & Responsibilities
Some of your duties may include
1
Depending on the site, you may operate powered industrial trucks (PIT) that reaches heights up to 40 feet
Equipment training and certification are provided free of cost
2
Receive, sort, and put away heavy and bulky inventory 3
Load boxes into trucks for shipment 4
Use technology such as computers and smart phones 5
View prompts on screens and follow direction for some tasks
You will also need to be able to do:
1
Lift up to 49 pounds 2
Use safe practices and methods to handle products heavier than 50 pounds 3
Stand and walk, as well as push, pull, squat, bend, and reach frequently during shifts 4
Use carts, dollies, hand trucks, and other gear to move items around 5
Go up and down stairs (where applicable)
