On our path to this goal, Amazon has made significant, industry-leading investments to decarbonize our operations, from renewable energy and more sustainable logistics to supplier engagement and beyond. In parallel with our climate work, Amazon has launched robust initiatives focused on protecting natural resources, advancing human rights, and engaging meaningfully with the communities where we operate.

Join the legal team that serves as strategic advisors for our sustainability initiatives as we build a better future together at Amazon scale.

- Collaborate with the Sustainability Science & Innovation team to support research initiatives, data-driven sustainability assessments, and scientific methodologies that inform Amazon’s environmental strategies and reporting
- Work cross-functionally across Amazon’s businesses and with other legal partners to integrate sustainability considerations into operations and decision-making
- Navigate evolving regulatory and compliance landscapes related to climate disclosures, corporate sustainability reporting, data privacy, and AI
- Draft, review, and negotiate contracts advancing Amazon’s sustainability goals
- Create and implement the legal framework for pilot programs and technology deployments developed by the Sustainability team
- Advise on governance structures and risk management frameworks for sustainability programs
