Senior Sofware Development Manager, Core Shopping
About The Position
We are looking for a Sr. Software Development Manager to lead a new 0→1 initiative that will shape the future of how customers discover, organize, and share across Amazon. This is a high-ambiguity, high-impact role that requires someone with the bias for action and judgement of an AI startup. You will be leading a high performing team of engineers and builders, and transforming tier-1 systems with AI native development. You will be working with partners across Amazon in realizing the vision, and influencing them to accelerate value for our customers. You will own the technical strategy and delivery of complex 0-1 programs. You are in charge of the technical health of your systems. The right leader knows how to blend product thinking into technology solutions, pivot fast to dis-confirm their beliefs, and obsesses over the customer experience. About the team: Amazon Lists helps hundreds of millions of customers organize and share the things they love — from wish lists and gift registries to idea boards and collections. We're entering a new chapter, applying state of the art AI to re-imagine how customers curate, discover, and connect through lists.
