Job Description
Amazon is looking for a Senior Technical Program Manager to join a highly innovative team that is building brand new, mission critical software for millions of Amazon customers.

As a leader on the team you’ll drive improvements to our technology, collaborating with sharp engineers and highly-engaged users to ship code continuously. We have many domains ranging from highly-scalable transactional backend systems, to complex optimization problems, to customer facing mobile apps, so if you love building world-class software of any time, most likely we have a place for you.

We use a broad array of technologies (from Swift to Scala, from NoSQL to JAX-RS) picking the right tool for the job at hand.
