IT Manager

Amazon RIVR is a robotics company pioneering Physical AI through real-world doorstep delivery. Founded in 2024 as an ETH Zurich spin-off, RIVR developed wheeled-legged robots designed to operate in complex, unstructured environments such as stairs, gates, doors, and uneven urban terrain. We believe that achieving general physical intelligence requires solving real customer problems in the real world, where robots can learn from rich operational data at scale.

Following our acquisition by Amazon in March 2026, we are continuing this mission with greater reach and speed. By combining custom robot hardware, onboard autonomy, and cloud-based coordination, Amazon RIVR is building the next generation of safe, reliable autonomous robots for last-mile delivery

We are seeking a hands-on and technically strong IT Manager to lead the development of a scalable and secure IT infrastructure that will support our company's rapid growth and integration into Amazon’s global ecosystem. The ideal candidate is a technical leader who is not "above" the day-to-day, buying and setting up laptops or managing hardware inventory, but is also driven enough to automate or find efficient outsourcing solutions for such tasks. This role is global in scope, requiring a strong focus on communication and documentation to support our teams across three continents.
