Amazon Flex is a global business unit whose mission is to enable fast delivery speeds and absorb variability in the business, at any time of year through scalable, innovative, and low-cost operations using independent contractor Delivery Partners (DPs).

The program gives Delivery Partners the opportunity to earn money by delivering packages to Amazon customers.
The Amazon Flex Account Management Experience team is focused on providing a user-friendly experience for DPs to onboard and manage their account status. This requires building and supporting configuration-driven systems which can adapt to changing program requirements across the 8 countries in which Flex operates.
