Program Manager, AWS Industry Products

DESCRIPTION

AWS Industry Products (AIP) is an engineering organization chartered to build new AWS products by applying Amazon's innovation mechanisms, outcome-driven engineering, and AWS digital technologies together, to produce customer outcomes that address real world industry problems. We dive deep collaborating with industry leaders on game-changing emerging technology that solve problems and unblock industries, enabling them to capitalize on new digital business models.

We are a diverse team of builders and innovators. We are curious, passionate, life-long learners, and we love getting stuff done (GSD). We aren't scared of ambiguity. We eat ambiguity for breakfast.

Key job responsibilities

As a Program Manager in AIP, you will manage large programs within the AIP product lifecycle partnering with business leaders, product, engineering, and other Amazon teams to enable successful industry product launches. This role requires cross-functional operation and influence to drive successful mechanisms.

An ideal candidate will understand software development processes, have experience working with highly technical teams, be able to deal with extreme ambiguity, have a track record of strong judgement, and have backbone. A background in program management is a must with a demonstrated ability to create, iterate, and drive scalable and durable mechanisms. This is a self-driven role requiring one to think both strategically and tactically to build and measure mechanisms without slowing teams down.
