About The Position

We are looking for a passionate Senior Technical Program Manager (TPM) to
transform the shopper experience and revolutionize how customers interact with
ads on one of the most visited pages on the internet!

Join the Stores Monetization technical program management team to drive both
monetization excellence and exceptional shopper experiences across Amazon's
Store - reaching millions of customers worldwide on every device imaginable.
You'll reinvent the customer experience and accelerate ad supply growth by
launching innovative ad products, ad formats, data products, and improving
measurement and ad relevancy at scale.

With a diverse and challenging backlog, your experience managing complex,
high-impact programs will be essential as you engage with cross-functional teams
across Amazon to remove friction during planning and delivery. From the
inception of an idea, you'll be involved in gathering requirements, shaping the
vision, and setting the team up for successful delivery.

As a Sr TPM, you are a key decision maker and strategic partner. You will
establish launch timelines, make critical decisions to optimize trade-offs, and
manage expectations with executive stakeholders. The scope and scale of our work
often comes with a high degree of ambiguity - you'll need to balance customer
needs with technical constraints, anticipate bottlenecks before they emerge, and
drive clarity in complex situations.

The ideal candidate thrives in ambiguity and values autonomy. They learn
enthusiastically, are comfortable making decisions, big and small, and can
influence without authority. This candidate will be highly organized, possess
excellent written and verbal communication skills, and have a proven track
record of delivering complex technical programs that drive measurable business
impact.

You will join a team of passionate Amazonians who are redefining how advertising
and shopping experiences come together on one of the most visited pages on the
internet. The APM Stores team brings together talented engineers, product
managers, technical program managers, and business developers with diverse
backgrounds and perspectives - all united by a commitment to innovation and
excellence.

As the bridge between Amazon's Stores and Advertising organizations, our team
plays a central role in shaping how millions of customers discover and engage
with brands across Amazon's retail properties. You'll collaborate with
cross-functional partners spanning Stores, Ad Sales, Demand Tech, Sponsored
Products, and more - gaining exposure to a rich mix of teams, businesses, and
technologies. Here, creativity meets impact, and your work will directly
influence both advertiser success and shopper experience at scale.
