Job Description

Shaping the Future of Global E-commerce!!

At Amazon's International Emerging Stores (IES), we're reinventing how millions of customers discover and shop online. Our team is architecting foundational platforms and mechanisms that will power Amazon's next generation of shopping experiences globally. We're tackling intrinsically hard problems at the intersection of AI, personalization, and scalable systems - challenges that require innovative solutions while maintaining our commitment to operational excellence. Our charter extends beyond traditional e-commerce boundaries, focusing on creating competitive advantages through technical innovation. We're building solutions that not only serve immediate business needs but establish new patterns and practices that can be adopted across Amazon. Our work demands deep technical judgment, cross-organizational collaboration, and the ability to influence at the highest levels of the organization.

The Opportunity: Senior Technical Program Manager

We're seeking an exceptional technical leader who can drive transformational change across Amazon's retail technology landscape. As a Senior Technical Program Manager, you'll own complex, cross-organizational technical initiatives that have the potential to reshape how we approach e-commerce globally. You'll work autonomously at the intersection of technical innovation and business strategy, making high-stakes decisions that balance technical excellence with business impact. Your scope will extend beyond traditional program management to include identifying and solving intrinsically hard problems - whether that's architecting new technical mechanisms, eliminating systematic inefficiencies, or creating frameworks that enhance engineering productivity across organizations. You'll need to navigate significant ambiguity, work with minimal structure, and handle situations with considerable business or security risk.

In this role, you'll operate as a strategic leader with a deep technical vision with responsibilities ranging from driving architectural proposals to building consensus among VP-level stakeholders on technical strategy. You'll be trusted to make autonomous decisions that have far-reaching implications for Amazon's technical landscape.
You'll need to bring clarity to ambiguous situations, challenge assumptions, and illuminate potential pitfalls. Whether you're presenting to senior leadership about technical strategy or mentoring other TPMs on handling complex technical programs, your influence will help shape the technical direction. You will be leading cross-organizational alignment sessions, where you'll build consensus on technical priorities that affect multiple teams and businesses. Your keen eye for simplification will be essential as you identify opportunities to streamline complex systems and thoughtfully deprecate components that no longer serve their purpose effectively.

You'll set the bar for technical program management excellence, demonstrating sophisticated stakeholder management and rigorous risk assessment approaches that others can learn from. Your communication skills will be put to the test as you articulate complex technical decisions and trade-offs to leaders up to three levels above, always maintaining clarity and strategic focus. Beyond immediate program delivery, you'll play a crucial role in developing the next generation of technical leaders. Through active participation in hiring, mentoring other TPMs, and contributing to the broader technical program management community, you'll help shape best practices and raise the standard for technical program management across Amazon.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives on solving complex technical challenges, influences across organizational boundaries, and is passionate about developing others. If you're excited about tackling intrinsically hard problems while helping shape the future of global commerce, we want to talk to you.
