Architectural Designer I , Integrated Design Solutions- Operational Design

Amazon, San Francisco, CA, United States


Architectural Designer I , Integrated Design Solutions- Operational Design Job ID: 10392258 | Amazon.com Services LLC - A57

Amazon's Integrated Design Solutions (IDS) team is looking for an Architectural Designer I to join a fast-paced, high-impact team delivering the composite designs that power Amazon's fulfillment network. This is a hands‑on role for someone who is sharp, detail-oriented, and ready to produce accurate 2D/3D design work in a high-volume, deadline-driven environment.

Key job responsibilities

Produce accurate 2D/3D composite designs using AutoCAD and Revit in support of fulfillment network projects

Incorporate vendor‑provided MHE designs and module placements into BIM models per established standards

Support clash detection and under‑the‑roof design validation to ensure composite accuracy before construction

Maintain organized, audit‑ready files in Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) following team data governance standards

Collaborate with design and program management partners to meet project milestones and delivery timelines

Flag design issues or discrepancies early and communicate clearly with the team to resolve them quickly

Apply feedback and iterate quickly to meet quality standards under tight deadlines

A day in the life Most of your day is spent in the tools — AutoCAD, Revit, and ACC — producing and refining composite designs. You'll receive project briefs and design inputs from your team, translate them into accurate layouts, and work through reviews with your manager or design partners to get them across the finish line.

You'll ask good questions, catch things early, and take ownership of your deliverables. When something isn\'t right, you say so. When a deadline is close, you focus. This is a role where doing the work well — consistently and accurately — is what matters most.

About the team The Integrated Design Solutions (IDS) team is Amazon\'s in‑house design and scan organization, delivering the composite products that power network expansion across 17+ business units. We sit at the intersection of operational design, BIM data governance, and scan technology with direct impact on how Amazon builds, launches, and scales its fulfillment network.

Our team supports a diverse portfolio of building types including mixed‑use fulfillment, pharmacy, Hazmat, Air, and Leo operations. We drive end‑to‑end composite delivery, clash detection, and under‑the‑roof design readiness ensuring design visibility is in place before breaking ground. We deploy scan technology to maintain accurate as‑built composite catalogues, support Facility Twins efforts, and deliver measurable operational savings at scale.

Basic Qualifications

Bachelor\'s degree in Architecture, Construction Management, Engineering, or a related field

Experience with AutoCAD and/or Building Information Modeling (BIM), as well as scheduling software (Primavera, MS Project, or similar)

Experience using one or more of the following technologies (e.g., AutoCAD, Rhino, Revit, SolidWorks, CREO, SketchUp, KeyShot, etc.) to deliver high quality models and designs

Experience completing complex tasks quickly with little to no guidance and reacting with appropriate urgency to situations that require a quick turnaround, or experience prioritizing and handling multiple assignments at any given time while maintaining commitment to deadlines

Experience that includes strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and effective communication abilities

Preferred Qualifications

3+ years of driving end-to-end delivery, and communicating results to senior leadership

3+ years of driving process improvements experience

Experience in stakeholder management, dealing with multiple stakeholders at varied levels of the organization

Experience building processes, project management, and schedules
