Amazon Package Handler - Flexible Shifts

Receive and prepare inventory for delivery
Use technology like smartphones and handheld devices to sort, scan, and prepare orders
View prompts on screens and follow direction for some tasks
Build, wrap, sort, and transport pallets and packages

You’ll also need to be able to:

Lift up to 49 pounds
Stand, walk, push, pull, squat, bend, and reach during shifts
Use carts, dollies, hand trucks, and other gear to move items around
Go up and down stairs (where applicable)
Work at a height of up to 40 feet on a mezzanine (where applicable)
