DESCRIPTION

We are building a global distribution solution, which provides businesses of all shapes and sizes access to Prime customers around the world. We're looking for Technical Program Manager to drive critical initiatives focused on effective and efficient growth in data and infrastructure.

This role requires working closely with infrastructure, software development, and business teams to define strategy and requirements, and then lead projects through detailed execution and delivery. The right candidate will possess a strong program management background, will have demonstrated experience leading medium to large projects, and will have a well-rounded technical background in current web technologies. You must be able to thrive and succeed in an entrepreneurial environment, and not be hindered by ambiguity or multiple competing priorities. This means you are not only able to develop and drive high-level strategic initiatives, but can also roll up your sleeves, dig in and get the job done. As a TPM, you will anticipate bottlenecks, provide escalation management, anticipate and make tradeoffs, and balance the business needs versus technical constraints. An ability to take large, complex projects and break them down into manageable pieces, develop functional specifications, then deliver them in a successful and timely manner is expected. Maturity, high judgment, negotiation skills, ability to influence, analytical talent, and leadership are essential to success in this role.

Your work would be cross-functional involving partnering with other global teams in Amazon, including Fulfillment, Supply Chain, Transportation, Customer Service and Finance teams. Your team will have an opportunity to own key services of Amazon Transportation systems.
