Amazon has a ton of remote jobs in several departments across the United States with high-paying, six-figure salaries you could make working from the comfort of your own home.

The e-commerce giant has an array of work-from-home jobs to hire for around the United States in roles ranging from finance and sales to operations and IT. Salaries range from $56,900 to $212,800 a year, depending on the job title, and the applicant's experience.

Besides an at-home career with Amazon, all employees receive benefits like competitive salaries, the option to own stock and participate in 401(k) plans, insurance plans, paid parental leave, a flexible work schedule, and "ample" paid time off.

If a remote job at Amazon sounds like the ideal career path for you, let's take a look at a few that are paying in the six-figure range that you just might qualify for:

Operations Engineer

Salary: $61,300 - $126,400
