Amazon XL Warehouse Associate
Pay rate: Up to $17.50
You’ll be part of the Amazon warehouse team that handles the big stuff – those unique customer orders that weigh over 50 pounds: big screen TVs, furniture, appliances, and more. You’ll be trained on how to use technology to handle these heavy bulk items. Even if you haven’t been a “power” player before, that won’t limit you from gaining valuable job experience because you’ll be trained on powered industrial trucks (PIT) such as a forklift or pallet driver.
Many shifts will have you at the helm of our power equipment getting orders ready for customers, but other times you’ll be on the warehouse floor of our fulfillment centers or delivery stations working with your teammates, tackling those hands-on items that need expert handling before they are sent along their delivery route. If you’re someone who thrives on being a heavy equipment operator, this is the opportunity for you.
Duties & Responsibilities
Some of your duties may include:
You’ll also need to be able to:Lift up to 49 pounds
Use safe practices and methods to handle products heavier than 50 pounds
Stand and walk, as well as push, pull, squat, bend, and reach frequently during shifts
Use carts, dollies, hand trucks, and other gear to move items around

Even with climate controls, temperatures can vary between 60°F and 90°F in some parts of the warehouse; on hot days, temperatures can be over 90°F in the truck yard or inside trailers.
Noise level. It can get noisy at times. We provide hearing protection if you need it.
Dress code. Relaxed, with a few rules to follow for safety. Comfortable, closed-toe shoes are required.
Amazon provides a $110 Zappos gift code towards the purchase of shoes, in order to have you prepared for your first day on the job. Why You’ll Love this JobStay busy.
You and your team are engaged the entire shift. Schedule options. In a fulfillment center, schedules may include full-time (40 hours) or reduced-time (30-36 hours).
