Program Specialist, NCC, Network Control Center, Amazon Customer Service

Amazon's Network Control Center (NCC) owns real-time observability, situational awareness, and coordinated intervention across the network to rapidly detect and eliminate issues before the customer journey is degraded.

The Real-Time Remedies Execution (RTRE) function within NCC acts as the centralized communications liaison between Amazon's Recovery teams, Business teams, and Amazon's customers. The mission is to help prevent contacts to Amazon by executing bulk actions on accounts and communications to customers impacted by large-scale issues. RTRE team is responsible for communicating to millions of D2customers each year across more than 20+ languages and owns all bulk actions such as large-scale physical and digital order refunds, cancellations, and more.

Do you want to join a team focused on critical communication and incident recovery, and play a role in the decision-making processes that restore/retain customer trust? Are you a passionate learner willing to relentlessly Deep Dive into data sets and partner with business analysts, advocates across leadership, and business teams? Do you thrive in a culture where Customer Obsession and the Bias For Action are highly valued?

As a Program Specialist, you will play a key role on the team by managing stakeholders on large-scale customer-impacting issues, owning relationships with partner teams, validating data, investigating customer issues, and driving the communications process from creation to execution. You will also contribute to NCC's broader mission of detecting and resolving incidents before customers are impacted, collaborating across multiple teams within the network. You will be detail oriented and results driven to ensure flawless communication execution as well as ensure the needs of both the customers and the business are addressed. Outside of these day-to-day duties, Program Specialists will own and have to work on process improvements.
