At Amazon, we're working to be the earth’s best employer. To get there, we need exceptionally talented, bright, and driven people. Amazon’s Business Mobility Services (BMS) is looking for a smart, passionate candidate to create new service offerings and consult on product development for the U.S. immigration organization. BMS’ Immigration Strategy and Operations team is a group of project managers, analysts, and experienced immigration subject matter experts who act as strategic partners and consultants to business leaders and partner support teams. The team centrally manages immigration filings and the vendors that support Amazon, and delivers projects to improve cost, quality, policy, compliance, and experience for immigration services at Amazon.

In this role, you will use your expertise and judgment in the immigration and mobility domain to oversee filing strategies at a programmatic level. This entails determining the right goals, informing decisions, managing and setting customer/stakeholder/partner expectations, and designing long-term solutions that serve the Amazon employee population. This role will leverage U.S. immigration subject matter expertise to take the lead on current state processes, identify root causes, and design solutions to drive down cycle times and improve the employee experience. You will work strategically to optimize the program to ensure a positive employee and candidate experience, build processes designed to protect data integrity and the hand off of information between BMS and external service providers and/or internal production teams. You will strive toward frustration-free employee and stakeholder experiences as they navigate the ever-changing landscape of immigration, both for today and for the future. The right leader for this role delivers independently but will seek direction as needed, and values continuous improvement, process and data inspection, seeking customer feedback, and enjoys growing and designing new programs and capabilities with the employee experience at the forefront.


Key job responsibilities
• Immigration Subject Matter Expertise: Leverage US immigration expertise in PERM, H or L visas, or overall NIV/IV processes to design high-volume solutions to drive down cycle times and improve the employee experience.
• Process improvement: Inspect current state case types prioritizing with highest volume to build durable, sustainable, and flexible processes that produce positive and reliable results. Process improvement includes creating and overseeing process mapping and journey maps.

• Create and oversee the creation of self-help resources to inform Amazonians and candidates about the process.
• Work with senior leadership within the BMS, Legal, Public Policy, PR to review and understand impact of immigration changes on the program and develop associated processes or filing strategies as needed.
