Experience

1. Operations Manager - Staffing Strategy Manager

   Amazon

   May 2023 — Present

   I currently lead a team of three managers and their 180 direct reports while shaping labor strategies that impact more than 300 fulfillment centers across North America. Before being promoted from Staffing Strategy Manager to Operations Manager, I focused on building scalable labor planning processes, fostering cross-functional collaboration, and enhancing team effectiveness across multinational operations.CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT:One of the most impactful initiatives I led was the introduction of a standardized “week 0” workforce planning process to optimize the allocation of 1.5 million annual labor hours. This proactive planning framework significantly improved throughput across our fulfillment network.LABOR PLANNING:Additionally, I spearheaded the design and rollout of a centralized labor incentive model that cut multimillion-dollar overtime costs over a six-week period. By automating the incentive tracking system, I minimized dependency on fixed labor models while preserving productivity.
