Data Center Engineering Operations Senior Technician - AWS Owned DC, DCEO
Milan, Lombardy, ITA
Amazon's Fulfillment Network is one of the most complex and dynamic operating environments in the world, and the Fixed, Capital, Analytics, and Planning (FCAP) team sits at the financial center of it all. FCAP manages fixed costs across US and Canada Operations spanning fulfillment, sortation, last mile delivery, reverse logistics, grocery, and sub same day networks. We are looking for a Finance Manager to join our E2E Hub and lead the technical integration of new networks into centralized fixed cost governance while partnering with the Standardization and Automation (S&A) team to test, validate, and deploy the next generation of finance automation platforms. This role connects across every pillar of the team, partnering with E2E Category subject matter experts who own account level fixed cost expertise, the Headcount Center of Excellence, Core Controllership, upstream FP&A teams and the Business Unit Partnership leads to bring the complete fixed cost picture together as each new network integrates. This role requires someone who thrives in ambiguity, builds where no playbook exists, and gets energy from replacing manual processes with scalable, automated solutions that work across the entire organization.
Key job responsibilities Own network integration end to end. As FCAP expands, new networks enter with different systems, different cost structures, and different ways of working. Assess, design, configure, build, and validate until the network is running on the standard framework. Partner across E2E Category SMEs, Headcount, Controllership, and the BU lead to ensure every dimension of the fixed cost picture is connected during integration. Partner alongside the BU lead through their first planning cycle, first close, and first weekly submissions until they are self sufficient. Every integration makes the E2E system more complete. Partner with S&A to test, validate, and deploy new finance automation platforms for planning, bridging, and close. Serve as primary UAT tester ensuring tools produce accurate outputs against real financial data within the real FP&A calendar. Translate business requirements from across the organization, including E2E Category account requirements, HC planning inputs, and BU lead reporting needs, into technical specifications for S&A. Push for the right design decisions. Identify risks before production. This is a sustained partnership that continues as platforms evolve. Invent and simplify at scale. Design automated templates, dashboards, standard bridge schemas, and cost center mapping frameworks that eliminate manual work and replace fragmented legacy tools across every network. Build solutions that work across all pillars, not just one. The standard you set is what every BU lead, every Category SME, and every HC planner executes on. Build it once, build it right, and build it so it scales as the team grows. Build the end to end fixed cost system. Connect integrated networks, deployed automation platforms, and standardized processes into a single data flow that brings together BU level reporting, E2E Category account detail, and HC Opex into one consolidated fixed cost view for leadership across US and Canada Operations. This system does not exist today. You are building it with the team! Drive change and adoption. New tools and processes only create value when people use them. Partner alongside each BU lead during onboarding, coordinate with E2E Category and HC to ensure their processes are reflected in new tools, build SOPs, run enablement, and bring the team forward as the operating model evolves. Own the launch model for new site cost assumptions and capacity planning as the network footprint expands.
A day in the life Success in this role is measured through the ability to integrate new networks cleanly and on time, deploy automation platforms that work against real financial data in the real FP&A cadence, and build the tools and standard processes that the entire team depends on. You will work across every pillar of FCAP. When a new network integrates, you partner with E2E Category SMEs to understand how each fixed cost account behaves in that network, with Headcount to ensure HC planning and fixed HC Opex align, with Controllership to ensure close and accrual processes are configured correctly, and with the BU Partnership lead to ensure they can deliver their first weekly cost review, first month end close, and first planning cycle on the standard methodology. The ideal candidate will demonstrate impact through scalable integration playbooks, the simplification and standardization of reporting and planning infrastructure across networks, and the sustained partnership with S&A to move new platforms from prototype to production. You will be evaluated on your ability to bring all of these pieces together into a single, consolidated end to end fixed cost system that gives leadership one view across US and Canada Operations.
About the team The FCAP team manages strategy and execution of fixed costs and headcount across US and Canada Operations through four pillars: Business Partnership, Core Controllership, E2E Category and Headcount Center of Excellence. This role sits within the Business Partnership Pillar alongside a Platform Lead driving centralized tools and dashboards and a Transformation Lead driving automation with S&A. BU Partnership leads each own a network end to end across weekly cost reviews, monthly close, and five annual planning cycles including OP1, OP2, Q2 Guidance, Q3 Guidance, and Q4 Guidance. E2E Category SMEs own the account level expertise across all fixed cost categories. The Headcount Center of Excellence owns HC planning and HC Opex.
