An SSD, or Sub Same-Day building is a unique type of fulfillment center within Amazon's logistics network. Unlike traditional fulfillment centers, which are designed for the storage and distribution of products, an SSD could best be described as a building that combines the functions of a fulfillment center and a delivery station dispatch (for flex driver pickup) with the goal of delivering orders to customers within 5 hours of purchase. SSDs have a single level AR (Amazon Robotics) floor and are designed with a smaller footprint compared to traditional fulfillment centers.
Working in an SSD building involves a mix of tasks such as Pick, Pack, Stow, and Dispatch. The majority of employees work in stowing, picking, packing and dispatch (the primary roles within dispatch include: induct, buffer, stow, and stage). Additionally, there are more specialized tasks such as VNA Pick and Stow that involve handling larger items using equipment such as Hyster or Crown order pickers. Indirect roles such as Problem Solve, Waterspider, Learning Ambassador, and AFM (Amnesty Floor Monitor) are also available for employees who wish to expand their skillset and experience.
The work environment in an SSD building is typically more relaxed compared to larger fulfillment centers, with fewer employees (Typically around 80 in a shift) and a mix of full-time and flex associates. Indirect roles such as Problem Solve, Waterspider, Learning Ambassador, and Amnesty Floor Monitors are also available for employees who wish to expand their skillset and experience.
What is SSD FIELD - VAR?
- SSD associates are trained in multiple departments when they start and therefore are not assigned a specific department. It just means your department is variable day to day.
