Amazon hires first 1，000 employees in Nashville

In November 2018， we announced that Amazon would invest in a new office in Nashville， bringing more than 5，000 corporate and technology jobs to the community to support our operations business. We're excited to share that we've crossed the 1，000 employee milestone at our Music City campus—and we’re continuing to hire， with open roles available across software development， engineering， finance， legal， and human resources.

We’ve been able to hire locally as well as attract new talent to the city. Connor Hull and Sivanvita Srimath are among the first 1，000 Amazon employees in the city. Hull， a Nashville native on the human resources team， is a software development engineer who is building new tools that allow us to recruit and hire at scale here in the region. Srimath is new to the Nashville area and supports mapping visualization for Amazon Delivery. The mapping technology she is developing ensures that our drivers and delivery partners can deliver customer orders safely and quickly.

"We’re thrilled to share that our hiring efforts are ahead of schedule in Nashville，" said Dave Clark， Amazon’s senior vice president of worldwide operations. "We've been impressed by the resilience and creativity of this city and its people. As we continue to hire from the strong and diverse talent pool in Nashville and attract more tech talent to the area， our teams here are already inventing new ways we can use technology to help keep our employees safe and continue serving our customers during this pandemic. We look forward to moving into our new downtown office and contributing to the growth of the emerging tech community in Nashville."

"Ever since Amazon announced that Nashville would be the home of their operations hub， we’ve seen first-hand the positive ripple effects this has had for the local economy，" said Freddie O’Connell， Nashville City councilman. "From the 1，000 new employees Amazon announced today， to increased employment opportunities in construction， food services and retail， and interest in Nashville from other tech companies as we foster local talent and grow our community of tech workers， the positive impact from Amazon can be felt now and will continue for years to come."

"We’re proud to be working closely with Amazon to bring exciting opportunities to the Nashville community，” said John Cooper， Mayor of Nashville. "Since the groundbreaking of Amazon Nashville， shipping facilities and fulfillment centers， we’ve seen Amazon’s investments in Nashville result in real job creation that is directly benefiting the area’s citizens—at all levels of experience and employment. We look forward to continuing this partnership to the benefit of the wider community."

Funding computer science education in NashvilleAs we continue to get to know our Nashville neighbors， we've engaged in dozens of community activities， offering jobs to local professionals and graduates， helping train the next generation of tech entrepreneurs， and supporting those in need.

Today， we’re excited to announce that we are expanding the Amazon Future Engineer program in Nashville. Since September 2019， Amazon Future Engineer has been funding computer science courses and robotics for 24 Metro Nashville schools focused on students from underserved and underrepresented communities. Amazon provided 21 schools with robotics programming and three high schools with introductory and AP computer science courses. Now， we are going a step further and adding all 72 elementary schools within Metro Nashville Public Schools to Amazon Future Engineer. We will be funding computer science curriculum and teacher professional development for these elementary schools， supporting more than 32，000 elementary-aged students.

In partnership with the nonprofit BootUp， Amazon will bring computer science to each school starting this September. The curriculum will be offered virtually as school is starting from home for all Metro Nashville Public Schools students. We believe that supporting elementary school students is a critical piece of Amazon Future Engineer's "childhood to career" approach because it helps bridge the equity skill gaps at an age when students are just beginning to formulate ideas about their futures.

"Starting the year in a virtual environment brings a sharp focus to the need for all of our students to be technologically proficient and educated in computer science，" said Dr. Adrienne Battle， director of Metro Nashville Public Schools. "We are grateful for the strong partnership of Amazon and BootUp to provide the learning tools and resources necessary to give all of our elementary students the opportunity to further develop this vital skillset."

"Creating jobs and hiring from the strong， existing talent pool in Nashville is only meeting half of our goal，" said Holly Sullivan， Amazon’s head of economic development. "As we grow in Nashville， we want to be a good neighbor and help build a stronger community. Part of that work is ensuring that more students have the computer science skills to fill the jobs of the future. Supporting these curious students—starting in elementary school， especially in this virtual world—is an important step to make this happen."

Engaging the Nashville communityOur commitment to the local Nashville community goes beyond our support for computer science education. We participated in the Greater Nashville Tech Council's virtual job fair in support of displaced Middle Tennessee workers due to the March 2020 tornadoes and COVID-19. We also donated more than 600，000 immediate relief items—including water， diapers， toiletries， and clothing—to local organizations to help deliver disaster relief and to support families affected by these natural disasters.

Amazon also partners with Second Harvest Food Bank of Middle Tennessee， providing cash donations and offering our delivery services to help get more than 100，000 pounds of food and serve over 90，000 meals to vulnerable groups. Through this collaboration， we are leveraging our robust network of Amazon Flex drivers and other delivery partners to make contactless deliveries of shelf-stable groceries directly to the doorsteps of more vulnerable Nashville residents who are disproportionately impacted by COVID-19.

Using our scale for good in TennesseeSince 2010， Amazon has created more than 12，000 jobs in Tennessee and invested more than $8.9 billion across the state， including infrastructure (from fulfillment centers， to delivery stations， to Whole Foods Markets) and compensation. These investments have contributed an additional $8.7 billion to the Tennessee economy and have helped create 12，700 indirect jobs on top of Amazon’s direct hires—from jobs in construction and logistics to professional services. In addition， more than 28，000 independent authors and small and medium businesses in Tennessee are selling to customers in Amazon’s store， creating thousands of additional jobs across the state.

亚马逊在纳什维尔雇佣了第一批1000名员工

2018年11月，我们宣布亚马逊将在纳什维尔投资新办公室，为社区带来5000多个企业和技术岗位，以支持我们的运营业务。我们很高兴与大家分享，我们已经跨过了音乐城校区1000名员工的里程碑，我们将继续招聘，在软件开发、工程、财务、法律和人力资源等领域提供开放式职位。

我们既能在当地招聘人才，也能吸引新的人才到这个城市来。康纳·赫尔（Connor Hull）和西万维塔·斯里马思（Sivanvita Srimath）是亚马逊在该市首批1000名员工之一。赫尔是纳什维尔人力资源团队的本地人，是一名软件开发工程师，他正在开发新的工具，使我们能够在该地区大规模招聘和招聘。Srimath是纳什维尔地区的新产品，支持Amazon交付的地图可视化。她正在开发的绘图技术确保我们的司机和送货合作伙伴能够安全、快速地交付客户订单。

亚马逊全球业务高级副总裁戴夫•克拉克（Dave Clark）说：“我们很高兴与大家分享，我们在纳什维尔的招聘工作提前了。”我们对这座城市及其人民的韧性和创造力印象深刻。随着我们继续从纳什维尔强大而多样化的人才库中招聘人才，并吸引更多的技术人才到该地区，我们这里的团队已经在发明新的方法，我们可以利用技术来帮助我们的员工安全，并在这场大流行病期间继续为我们的客户服务。我们期待着搬进我们新的市中心办公室，为纳什维尔新兴科技社区的发展做出贡献。”

“自从亚马逊宣布纳什维尔将成为他们运营中心的所在地以来，我们亲眼目睹了这对当地经济产生的积极连锁反应，”纳什维尔市议员弗雷迪·奥康奈尔（Freddie O'Connell）说从亚马逊今天宣布的1000名新员工，到建筑、食品服务和零售业的就业机会增加，以及随着我们培养当地人才和发展我们的科技工作者社区，其他科技公司对纳什维尔的兴趣，亚马逊的积极影响现在可以感受到，而且将持续数年。”

纳什维尔市市长约翰·库珀说：“我们很自豪能与亚马逊紧密合作，为纳什维尔社区带来令人兴奋的机遇。”自从Amazon Nashville、航运设施和履行中心破土动工以来，我们已经看到亚马逊在纳什维尔的投资带来了真正的就业机会，这直接惠及该地区所有经验和就业水平的公民。我们期待着继续这一伙伴关系，造福更广泛的社会。”

资助纳什维尔的计算机科学教育我们继续了解我们的纳什维尔邻居，我们参与了几十个社区活动，为当地专业人士和毕业生提供工作，帮助培训下一代科技企业家，并支持那些需要帮助的人。

今天，我们很高兴地宣布，我们正在纳什维尔扩展亚马逊未来工程师计划。自2019年9月以来，亚马逊未来工程师一直在资助24所纳什维尔地铁学校的计算机科学课程和机器人技术，这些学校的重点是服务不足和代表性不足的社区的学生。亚马逊为21所学校提供机器人编程，3所高中提供入门和AP计算机科学课程。现在，我们又向前迈进了一步，将纳什维尔市公立学校内的72所小学全部添加到亚马逊未来工程师（Amazon Future Engineer）中。我们将资助这些小学的计算机科学课程和教师专业发展，资助超过32000名小学适龄学生。

与非营利组织BootUp合作，亚马逊将从今年9月开始为每所学校带来计算机科学。课程将在纳什维尔市所有公立学校的学生从家里开始提供。我们认为，支持小学生是亚马逊未来工程师“从童年到职业”方法的一个关键部分，因为它有助于弥合在一个学生刚刚开始对未来形成想法的年龄段的公平技能差距。

“在虚拟环境中开始新的一年，我们所有的学生都需要精通技术并接受计算机科学教育，”纳什维尔市公立学校的主任阿德里安·巴特尔博士说我们非常感谢亚马逊和BootUp的紧密合作，为我们所有的小学生提供必要的学习工具和资源，使他们有机会进一步发展这一至关重要的技能。”

亚马逊经济发展主管霍利•沙利文（Holly Sullivan）说：“从纳什维尔现有的强大人才库中创造就业机会和招聘人才，只达到了我们目标的一半。”随着我们在纳什维尔的成长，我们希望成为一个好邻居，帮助建立一个更强大的社区。这项工作的一部分是确保更多的学生具备计算机科学技能来填补未来的工作。从小学开始支持这些好奇的学生，尤其是在这个虚拟世界中，这是实现这一目标的重要一步。”

参与纳什维尔社区我们对当地纳什维尔社区的承诺超出了我们对计算机科学教育的支持。我们参加了大纳什维尔技术委员会的虚拟招聘会，以支持因2020年3月龙卷风和COVID-19而流离失所的田纳西州中部工人。我们还向当地组织捐赠了60多万件紧急救援物品，包括水、尿布、洗漱用品和衣物，以帮助救灾和支持受灾家庭。

亚马逊还与田纳西州中部的第二丰收食品银行合作，提供现金捐助，并提供我们的送货服务，帮助获得超过10万磅的食物，并为弱势群体提供超过9万份餐食。通过这一合作，我们正利用我们强大的亚马逊Flex驱动程序网络和其他交付合作伙伴，将货架稳定的食品直接送到纳什维尔更脆弱的居民家门口，这些居民受到COVID-19的严重影响。

利用我们2010年在田纳西州的良好规模，亚马逊已经在田纳西州创造了12000多个就业机会，并在整个州投资了超过89亿美元，包括基础设施（从配送中心到配送站，再到整个食品市场）和薪酬。这些投资为田纳西州的经济贡献了87亿美元，并在亚马逊直接雇佣建筑、物流和专业服务等岗位的基础上创造了12700个间接就业岗位。此外，田纳西州超过28000名独立作者和中小型企业正在亚马逊商店向客户销售产品，为整个州创造了数千个额外的就业机会。
