Palmdale Opening:Amazon Fresh Warehouse Associate

Join the Amazon Fresh team! We are hiring Warehouse Associates to handle online grocery orders. This 'entry level' role involves working in various temperature zones, including 'cold storage' (refrigerated and freezer areas). While 'no experience' is strictly required, comfort working in cold environments is essential. About Amazon Fresh: Amazon Fresh delivers groceries and household essentials directly to customers' doors, often within hours. Our warehouses are smaller than typical fulfillment centers and focused specifically on handling perishable and non-perishable grocery items. Your Role as an Amazon Fresh Associate: You'll be picking, packing, and stowing grocery items for customer orders. A significant part of this role involves working in temperature-controlled environments, including 'cold storage' areas like chillers (around 34°F) and freezers (down to -10°F) for parts of your shift. You'll use technology to manage orders and ensure product quality. Your Day-to-Day: Expect a fast-paced environment. Shifts can include 'day shift', 'night shift', and 'weekend' schedules. You will rotate tasks, spending time in ambient, refrigerated, and freezer sections. Amazon provides specialized gear for working in 'cold storage'. You'll be standing, walking, lifting, and reaching throughout your shift. Training & Onboarding: Paid, on-the-job training covers safe handling of food products, using scanning technology, quality checks, and specific procedures for working safely in 'cold storage' environments. Career & Compensation: Amazon offers competitive hourly pay, estimated between $17 - $22 per hour for this role, often with shift differentials. Benefits for eligible associates include health insurance, 401(k), paid time off, and employee discounts. Experience in grocery, food service, or 'cold storage' is a plus.
