die wir bekannt sind. Wir arbeiten in Fulfillment-Centern, die das
Herzstück von Amazons dynamischem Betriebsnetz bilden. Unsere
Fullfilment-Center werden manchmal auch als die "erste Meile"
(First Mile) bezeichnet – hier starten die meisten Amazon-Pakete
ihren Versandweg. Wir unterstützen die Verwaltung eines dynamischen
Bestands und ermöglichen schnelle Zustellungen rund um die Uhr.In
