About Chingiz Sargozhin

At Amazon, I provide end-to-end funding support for Middle and Last Mile teams, helping new station launches and capacity expansions get approved and executed on time. I started in fulfillment operations to gain frontline exposure to large-scale logistics before moving into capital planning, combining operational insight with financial and engineering rigor.Before Amazon, I spent a decade in upstream oil & gas, beginning as a field reliability engineer, delivering brownfield projects from early FEED to operational handover, and leading greenfield delivery on the $45Bn Future Growth Project, overseeing engineering, procurement, fabrication, and site execution for 22 industrial assets, including mission-critical facilities. I also served as an internal consultant, running economic evaluations, long-term strategy studies, and implementing new operating models that unlocked trapped capital.PMP certified and a mechanical engineer by training, I lead projects end-to-end, balancing deep operational analysis with strategic oversight, and aligning cross-functional teams and stakeholders to successfully launch and scale complex operations.
