Power that runs the world | Discover careers in Operations

Operations roles at Amazon put you at the center of how things move from a click to a doorstep. You'll help design, improve, and run systems that connect people, products, and places at scale. You'll take ownership early, work closely with teams to solve real-world challenges, and see the direct results of your decisions as they reach customers every day. Here, the impact of what you build isn't abstract, it's visible, immediate, and meaningful - keeping one of the world's most complex operations moving forward. This is where your journey takes shape through action, responsibility, and the opportunity to grow in many directions.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This role is based out of Amazon’s Bellevue, WA corporate office (SEA104). Applicants must be able to work on-site at our Bellevue, WA office during the spring semester and be available for travel during summer months. During summer months, travel to Amazon fulfillment centers under construction and corporate offices around the US is required.

The Pre-Construction Manager (PCM) Internship is an on-site part-time internship (20 hours a week) during the Spring 2027 academic season (February 2027 – May/June 2027) based in our Bellevue, WA corporate office.
Upon school release for Summer 2027 (May/June 2027 – July/August 2027) this position shifts to a 12-week internship “full-time” (40 hours/week) with travel opportunities to project sites and Amazon facilities across the United States.

This is a hybrid corporate and field position, combining strategic preconstruction work in our corporate office environment with hands-on exposure to large-scale industrial building projects at fulfillment centers, construction sites, and job trailer environments.

Amazon’s Global Engineering Services (GES) NA Design & Construction team is looking for innovative and solutions-oriented interns to support our preconstruction function. Pre-Construction Manager interns will support Amazon’s owner’s representative role during the preconstruction phase of industrial building projects, managing activities from site selection through design completion, permitting, and contract execution. This is a unique opportunity to gain hands-on exposure to large-scale industrial construction projects while working alongside senior Preconstruction Managers, architects, engineers, developers, and cross-functional Amazon teams.

Support management of well-defined industrial preconstruction project activities from site selection through design completion, permitting, and contract execution

Assist with site selection validation, scope development, and design coordination within assigned regions

Assist in coordinating with Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) for regulatory approvals including zoning, planning, fire code, and building code requirements

Help track project performance against Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for safety, quality, cost, schedule, and sustainability

Learn to translate technical documents into clear narratives and summaries for non-technical stakeholders

Review site plans, composite floor plans, and design documents

Track permitting status and support coordination with regulatory agencies

Support Amazon’s participation in weekly AOC meetings

Support sustainable, environmentally responsible building practices

Follow and help refine preconstruction processes, procedures, and playbooks

Utilize Amazon’s information systems accurately and on time


A day in the life
During the spring semester, PCM interns work part-time out of SEA104 supporting preconstruction activities such as reviewing design documents, tracking permitting progress, preparing project status updates, updating project management systems, and coordinating with architects, engineers, and design consultants. You will work under regular guidance from senior Preconstruction Managers, building your knowledge of construction and project management concepts while contributing to real project deliverables.

During the summer full-time period, interns travel to project sites to support field preconstruction activities, attend AOC meetings, interface with developers and landlords, support estimating activities, and gain firsthand exposure to Amazon’s industrial building projects from the ground up. You will work across multiple stakeholder groups and build effective working relationships while developing toward independence. Travel to various locations across the United States is expected during summer months (up to 80%).
