Behind every package that arrives on time is a network of fulfilment centres running like clockwork. That reliability doesn’t happen by accident — it’s powered by skilled engineers who maintain and protect complex systems every day. In this short, high-impact Bitesize Career, you’ll step into the world of reliability and maintenance engineering at Amazon, and find out how critical thinking and technical skills keep operations running at scale.
In around 1-2 hours, you’ll work through a real-world maintenance scenario, identifying potential risks and deciding how to prevent downtime in a fast-paced fulfilment centre. You'll think like an engineer — spotting problems before they happen and designing solutions that keep everything moving.
After completing your task, you’ll compare your solution to a model answer from an Amazon professional. You’ll sharpen your problem-solving, technical analysis, and risk management skills — key foundations for careers in engineering, operations, and logistics.
